Default Option packages

I have what I believed to be a 1LT 2009 Coupe with the standard option package. I had some minor vandalism done to my targa roof panel and my insurance company sent an appraiser to assess the damage. She used my VIN as part of the data and, when I got a copy of the assessment, it listed the options on my car, which I believe must come from GM records associated with the VIN. The description calls out several options that I didn't know that my car (or don't believe that my car) has. These are as follows:
Power passenger seat
Heated exterior mirrors
Premium Sound System
Memory Seat
Bluetooth wireless connectivity
Telematic systems???
Universal garage door opener
Exterior memory mirrors
Front heated seats
I would have thought that the car would have controls for things like the memory seat and universal garage door opener which aren't apparent anywhere in my car and I thought that the various option levels (1LT, 2LT, etc.) were all pre-determined and that additional options would only be available if you selected the next LT level. Is it possible that the GM records that my insurance company accessed are wrong or is my car not a 1LT?

Outside heated mirrors were standard with the 1LT option package.

Attached is an Acrobat 2009 Order Guide. It will tell you what came with each option package. I think the mirrors are about the only thing that you listed that came with the 1LT option package.

The garage door opener would be 3 buttons on the sun visor.

Humans are prone to errors, pay for the production records from the museum or go the rest of your life wondering or hopeing someone will figure it out for you. Or you can look at the RPO tag on the glovebox door.

Doubtful the ins co is getting any of the information from GM. Trust the RPO tag.

3-character RPOs on the inside of the glove box door will list those RPOs in alphabetical order, with RPOs that begin with a number will be listed last. Look for the 1LT, 2LT, or 3LT near the end of the list.

And here I thought it would be OK to ask my initial question because this space is advertised as a "no flame zone". BTW, the word you were searching for is "hoping". Proving yourself both arrogant and ignorant. Quite an accomplishment.

S. C. gave you a helpful suggestion when he mentioned the RPO tag in the glove box. That's a sure way to find out what option package you've got.

He didn't do any flaming, why are you attacking him?

I had a vehicle totaled a couple of years ago and the adjuster had some bad info on how it was equipped. I gave him a copy of the original window sticker with the Vin and it cleared things right up. The adjuster may not be too motivated to decode the RPO sticker in the glovebox
