Default Option codes

I have been trying to decode the list of codes on the inside of my glove compartment lid on the 1999 I just bought. I found all of them except DL5,VM3,1AY,1SA,BC/CC,U9021 & 193. Does anyone happen to know any of these?

Yea......the dealer should be able to run the VIN and advise. Also something you may want to check out......the Corvette Museum. They sale duplicate window stickers and build sheets, which you can even get laminated if you want to frame. Kinda nice......
