Default RPO Code Sticker for 2005

Since my account is not yet fully activated, I'm looking at an 05 coupe and wondered where the factory RPO sticker is located for the 2005 model year. Thanks

Thanks.

I have found a couple of codes that I have not found listed on several sites and wondered if anyone on here can help with those.

R6B R9U SLM VM3

I also found U3U for the radio code, which appears in the 2006 RPO listing, not 2005. Was that common?

If the sticker has R6M-New Jersey surcharge, does that mean the car was originally delivered to a New Jersey dealer?

Thanks, I'm new here and going to look at an 05 Z51 tomorrow and am trying to do as much research before I go.

Going to look at an 05 tomorrow and have the RPO codes but there are a few that I cannot locate. Does anyone know what these may be?

R6B R9U SLM VM3 This car also says it has a U3U radio, which shows up in the 06 codes, not the 05. Is this a common occurrence?

Sticker also has R6M which is 'New Jersey Surcharge'. Does this mean the car originally was delivered to a dealer in NJ?


Thanks

Thanks, I took a pass at the one I went to look at today. It had the dreaded harmonic balancer wobble, it blew the fuse to adjust the driver seat right after I got in it and tried to adjust the seat, it had a custom hood which the paint didn't match the fender or the bumber (which is normal because it's plastic) so having 3 different shades of color up front just didn't get it. Will continue to look for another one.
