I've heard you can go to the dealer and ask them for a code sheet (for free)... might be worth a shot!

If the car came to you with no paperwork (like mine did... I only had an Alabame title) then you can go to the dealer or online to the restoration section of either Chevy or Pontiac, and get a whole kit that includes everything from the RPO sheets to the original window sticker that came on the car. I think the kit was around $100, but I can't find it at this point in time online. I still have to get mine...

Oh, I almost forgot, you need the VIN to get the info you need.

PHS is like $35 for vehicle options & history (I haven't checked the price in over a yr though)

My car didn't have any RPO anything when I bought i. Except for THIS . Found it tucked away w/the owners manual

I found the assembly line build sheet for my Firebird under my driver side rear seat cushion.
I feel fortunate as my Firebird came to me without the RPO code attached to the console box door
WaOnFiRe What type of Chrome lug nuts are on the wheels?
