Newbie ?

[jimmyjones]

I just recently bought my SOM WS6. I want to know all the info I can on it since I will never get rid of it. I already know my ASC # is 10266 but what does ASC stand for? Also I see alot of people that know their car is like- 128 of 200, How do I find out what number mine is. Any info on this would be appreciated. Thanks

The vin information is very helpful but how do you know what number you car is? Like #1 of 200. I always see that people have that so I am curious on how to figure it out.

You call GM Customer Assistance Center 1-866-952-4368 Mon - Fri 6 am to 2:30 pm ET and they will tell you your build specifics using your vin#.

That's what they renamed their company in 2004. Prior to that it was American Sunroof Company. They got their start adding aftermarket sunroofs to vehicles.
