so, T or X depending on if it's a auto or a stick.
T=GS 4LT mt

Just a heads up, the 4lt option can lead to a lot of dash related headaches. I see you are new to the forum, but I have seen this come up more than a few times and it is expensive to fix.

The leather dash bubbling up or peeling off the dash. GM didn't use the right adhesive to properly keep the leather glued to the dash.

No problem. I'm still learning this stuff myself. I can't figure out that "4" in the fifth digit. I'll do some more research. I'm in South Florida so I'll be busy for the next few days getting ready for Irma. She wants to tear my house down and I've got to try to stop her.

That doesn't tell you what the 4 in the 5th character position is for. OP is still asking about that. Evidently GM has a different decoder for each different Chev car and model year.
