Location: Commonly found in the glove box, on the rear of the middle storage compartment in the center console, or the driver's side door pillar.
Details: This label contains a list of RPO (Regular Production Option) codes, including trim level information. Look for codes that start with a "Z" (like Z06, ZR1) which indicate specific Corvette trims.

Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

Location: The VIN can be found on the driver’s side dashboard, through the windshield, on the side door jamb, or official documents like vehicle registration and insurance.
Usage: You can input the VIN into various online VIN decoders to find detailed information about your Corvette, including the trim level.

Owner’s Manual

Reference: The trim level is sometimes mentioned in the owner’s manual under the vehicle specifications or identification section.

Chevrolet Dealership or Customer Service

Contact: If you need help finding or interpreting the information, contact a Chevrolet dealership or their customer service with your VIN to help you obtain the trim level details.

Vehicle History Reports

Providers like Carfax or AutoCheck: These services can provide a detailed vehicle history report that includes the trim level, which can be particularly useful when purchasing a used car.

Additional Tips

Multiple Sources: Verify through multiple sources to ensure accuracy when determining the trim level, especially if purchasing a used car.
Check Consistency: Ensure all documents and labels correspond to each other to confirm the trim level is accurate.
