Default Duplicate vehicle code sticker

anyone know if a duplicate vehicle code sticker (the one on the backside of the glove box door) can be purchased?

I tried GM and they said it’s not available.

Never seem those available as they would be specific to the car. I don't even believe the NCM would be able to help.

Thanks guys.

Luckily I got ahold of the buyer that bought my glove box and he is going to send me a pic of the tag and if he can get it off in one piece he will mail it to me. 👍

I don’t know if those could even be legally sold. With a VIN number on them I don’t think they could be sold.

Curious how that works. My glove box was replaced due to damage from a break in. Have the old one with the sticker attached. Tried to remove it but I don't think it's going to happen without destroying the sticker.

If all you want are the options on your car, and not the actual sticker, the build sheet should show them. Build sheets are available through the NCM.

Yea but you know how Corvette owners are, they want every document that came with the car to be on the car. The glove box option sticker is one oem label that every body wants their car to have. Even the the label that the union puts on every Corvette made on the drivers door jam is highly sought after. I was offered $250 for this one.

Since you didn't indicate that you sold the sticker for $250, I assume you declined the offer & kept it. What's up with that?

Chicklets are a whole other kettle of fish.

I did decline. Not really sure I would want to sell it. I don't know of anybody else that has one. But if you buy a C6 without one your pretty much guaranteed that car has been hit on that side and repaired. How much is my sticker worth to that person especially if it's a ZR1.

Chicklets I can understand buy why would you take that sticker off your door jam. It's basically a oem sticker that the union puts on.

Must be a “purist” thing because those stickers don’t mean squat to me.

To answer the OP's question: The glove compartment door RPO stickers are not available from any source. They are specific to the individual car and are not reproduced.
