This video provides a comprehensive guide on how to locate, decode, and leverage RPO codes for your GMC or Chevrolet General Motors truck. It emphasizes the importance of checking the trim code before ordering interior GMP P. Knowing RPO codes is crucial when purchasing OEM replacement parts, talking to a repair shop, or understanding vehicle options.
The video also shows interior color differences on 1999-2002 GMC trucks and SUVs, showing trim codes for each color and close-up comparisons. To decode RPO codes, email your VIN to [email protected] and ask for your truck’s build sheet. The interior color code is located in the bottom right of the sticker and is also one of the RPO codes near the end of the list ending in the letter “I”.
To identify the interior trim code, check for either the short year/make/model paint code or the longer manufacturing (Fisher) paint code. All RPO codes are on a white sticker with black lettering. A quick way to determine what you have is to pop up the rear seat and look at the bottom of the rear seat.
In terms of interior color RPO codes, it is best to avoid color names and stick to the codes. In some cases, marketing teams at Chevy may use different codes for different products or services. Overall, this guide helps you become an informed shopper or empowered owner when dealing with your GMC or Chevrolet vehicle.

Great Link! Works perfectly. The title makes it confusing, but I went through alphabetically my 1996K2500 Suburban (GMC) and found everything I was looking for (rear axle ratio, Posi, cooler for trans,……….). Yes printing it out and taking a picture from/of your glovebox label and just making them off as you find them worked perfectly. Excellent Youtube!!
Just a couple of little lessons I’ve learned while restoring my own Chevy interior. First, GM’s “pewter” color apparently exists in at least two variations which, at least from one interior paint vendor, go by the very same name – Md Drk Pewter! So, beware! The numbers from the codes in my glove box made me think that Color #157 GM Md Drk Pewter would be the correct color – but it’s not. That one is much too dark. What you want is #154 GM Md Drk Pewter. Same name but much different color. Also, if you or a previous owner smoked in the vehicle, be aware that the tar from cigarette smoke will make “pewter” – which is actually sort of a strange cross between gray and silver – look like tan. So, if you don’t thoroughly clean the tar off of every part of your interior before touching it up with paint, even the correct paint (#154) will look wrong.
I have a 99 2 door Tahoe, would this gray be the only 1 they offered in the mid 90s for 2 doors as well? 99 is the last yr of the 2 door tahoe but it began in 1992 it was a blazer but become the Tahoe so I’m just confused because you have 99-02 but this gray was used throughout the 90s as well then? The glove box in my Tahoe is from a different Tahoe so that’s where I’m at with that, any help would be appreciated
