hi, I have a 1999 ute I was hoping someone could help with the option codes
the ute only has the two plates on the fire wall it dose not have a plate on the radiator support
the plat reads ,

VS8VK80-824-8BB
BODY-L448472
PAINT-B171
ENG-LB9
TRANS-M30
AXE-GU4

GVM2090
15/04/99
GH8VSK80UXL448472

if some one can help sort this it would be much appreciated
I cant find most of these codes apart from eng and trans axe,
it dosent have a plate on the radiator support and im trying to find out if its an SS ,
Im thinking its a mock up,

Cheers. Problem is it doesn't have a code plate on the radiator support so was wondering if there's is anything in the other codes to know if it's a SS

Not really. The SS is based on an exec, so it won't come up in the VIN as being anything special.

The rad support plate doesn't have much in the way of model info, I think it's just build date information.

Is the dash on the SS different to the standard?

Might have an SS thing where the Commodore logo usually is on the passenger side, don't know for sure though. Trawl through some of the members rides, you might be able to find out there.

vs ss ute
8bb is the ss rpo code.
I have one too with the paint code b171 and I have had trouble verifying it cause I thought they only come in black and blue,
B171 is raven pearl

Just a critical point I guess,

GH8VSK80UXL448472 is not the correct VIN, ............it should be 6H8VSK80UXL448472
