Does anyone know where I can decode it? Sticker in the trunk on driver side with all the 3-digit letter and number codes?

And don't be surprised if it shows options that your car does not have or lets out one it does . These stickers can be way off at times must been close to quitting time LOL

A question I have though: Where are the codes found on the earlier cars? My '78 does not have an RPO sticker under the deck lid.

The RPO labels under the trunk lid first appeared in 1984, so your car won't have one.

You'll either have to get lucky and find an intact build sheet in the car, or you may be able to contact GM Historical Services and get a copy from them. I know you can get them for an Olds, but not sure about a Buick...

Not terribly concerned with my own car actually. It'd be more usefull for going through junkyards. It's easier to look at a code list than crawling in the mud to determine whether a vehicle has posi for example.

I don't know how much you can trust the code label even if you find it....who knows what has been done to a car 20-30 years old and you might be passing up something your looking for
