How can tell if I have an RS package - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Ah. Convertible, so no ditch-moldings to check.

Maybe hints...

Are the tail lenses tinted, or is the inside just black? Stock RS is not actually tinted.

Check headlight connectors to see if they look stock or added-on/modified.

Can you send more pictures. Like the rear. Also the side markers are aftermarket. And to add another thing is your seats leather or cloth. The SS in the grille is for a 1SS.

My first guess would be that you dont have an RS, but someone put in halo headlights, possibly aftermarket as they are more likely to fail than OEM going by posts on this forum.
Closeups of the headlights might help to determine.

Thanks for the feedback. I will look for the things suggested and get some further pics posted up in a few.

RBBC5 · 06-26-2021, 11:14 AM

Ok so here is a few pics. From what I have read on here the WHITE SS means plain 'ol SS where as the RED SS is part of the RS Styling package. That I get. Also the RPO CODE in the trunk does have 2SS and Leather interior just not the WRS for Rally package. Anyhow here are the tailights pass side where the SS apears to be missing, and the headlights front and under the hood. There is a black rectangle box as seen in the underhood pic. There is one on each side behind the headlight housing. There are two white wires on one end and a red and black goin into the other. I apologize for sounding dumb when it comes to this stuff. But as you can see my other Camaro is 20 years old and I bought that brand new so every mod/upgrade I did and know what's what on her. So any assistence you can offer me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Thanks I kinda figured. NBD I was more curious than anything. Ok so now I just need to swap some parts out again, like the headlight housings with a better aftermarket Halo System apparently.

Any suggestions??

Thanks, much appreciated!

Guess I'll be looking up some new headlights and getting some badging replaced.

Would a '10 2LT RS been built w/out the rear RS badge? No signs it ever had one. Car was a one owner with a clean car fax(no accidents). It has RS taillights, grill, and RS striping. Have confirmed "C" at fifth VIN digit as a 2LT RS (thanks mydreamcar).

It should have one, maybe previous owner removed it?
The vin does not indicate if you have the RS option, did you check for the WRS option in the RPO list in the trunk?

I'll double check the RPO. Pretty sure it is legit though, down to the colored ditch moldings. Thanks.

Mine is a RS and I have leather seats.
