I need the paint code for my Vette but I don't know what RPO code in the glove box it is.

I forget what it starts with. I believe it is on the left rear compartment cover. I think it's also in the center console.

It is on the bottom of the sticker in your glove box before it it will have a bc/cc (case coat, clear coat) the numbers given above are ordering codes not the actual paint codes. for example; electron blue is U 779 J
