The option codes for 2018 and newer are located in a big QR code on the door jamb. 2014-2017 codes were on a sticker under the trunk carpet. Get a QR code reader for your smartphone and you'll have them.

You should be able to find descriptions for each code in a few minutes on Google.

You can go to a GM dealer with your VIN and ask for a VIS report. It will have all of the RPO's for your car.

We just described how to get the info without even leaving the house. Why would you then suggest going to a dealer?
