If you’re lucky enough you got the factory assembly tag that’s taped to the hood after body/paint so everyone down the line knows what parts to install at a glance. The factory throws it in the passenger seat after final inspection.
Most dealers throw them out at PDI. Some customers throw them out when they buy the car.
My dealer called me literally when my car came off the truck and they didn’t touch the window sticker or assembly tag in PDI. Great dealer who knows their customers!! Shout out to Kevin at Serpentini Chevy in Westlake, Ohio  |
I think the SPID label is what you're referring to as a "sticker". Build sheets are different, usually tossed loose or hidden somewhere, and they do contain RPO information, but also other information about the assembly. They were typically paper sheets with the form-feed margins for the dot-matrix printer still on. I'm curious this is even part of a process anymore or if it's all electronic/scanned stuff.
I bought my 6th gen new off the lot, I didn't order it. Any tag taped to the hood was long gone. The car had been sitting for a while and even in Nov 2023 I was able to get a good discount off MSRP. I have the window sticker, and I'm happy
The car is going to get driven...I think. lol. It's racked up 507 whole miles in 6 months! The weather hasn't been great.
