RPO explanation and Where to find them


A RPO is a Regular Production Option or essentially the options that the car comes with (also called the Service Parts Identification Label). Here is what one looks like:



LEGEND (1) Vehicle Identification Number
(2) Wheel Base
(3) Part Number Location
(4) Model Designation
(5) Order Number
(6) Exterior Color
(7) Paint Technology

here is a "real" one (note that this one has extra annotations):


The RPO Label or "service parts ID label" can be found on the Spare tire cover on most GM cars.

A RPO code itself is a 3 digit/character code. By looking up your RPO codes, you will be able to see almost every option that your car is built with.
