For what it's worth, here is another 02U69EA example:

Re: Radio ECL's 1967

Time and space does not allow interpreting all those posted tank stickers but this is a good example:
02 is code for Corvette, middle digits are option, last 2 are quantity produced with similar equipped units.
02418AA Dark Blue trim 1,816
02L36AA L36 engine 5,933
02K66AD Trans. ign. L36 449
02G81NA 3.70 Axle 3,025
02M21AA Trans L36-71 7,789
02U69EE radio ALL 22,193
02J50MA Vacuum Power Brakes 1,126
02L68AA 427 Hi Perf. Tri,Bbl. used with RPO-L36 2,101
02N11AA Off Road Exhaust 2,326
02N36AA Telescopic steering shaft 2,415
02P92AA 775 x 15.4 WSW no quantity listed, probably too many etc. etc.

David- THANX for the detailed explanation, but I was mainly looking for guidance on the RADIO CODES listed in the various posted documents. If EE was representative of ALL radio codes, how would the line workers know what proper radio parts to install?

I thought the ECL codes were UNIQUE for each option... and GM had no 'similar' data, until the end of production. In the case of the radio, if EE is for ALL radios... where does that leave AA, EF, FA (and the rest of many other radio codes seen in documents)? If a radio was being installed on an N14 sidepipe car, are all the shields/connections/grounds/capacitors/etc the exact same as a base car? If you ordered C60 A/C with a Big Block... once again, are all the shields/connections/grounds/capacitors/etc the same as a base car? When installing a radio, did a Corvette with K66 TI have anything different? How would the assembly line worker know what parts to use... wasn't that based on the individual/unique ECL radio code?

Re: Radio ECL's 1967

Here's a late tank sticker for a 400 horse without AC and without sidepipes coded as EE. The second tank sticker is an early 400 horse without AC and without sidepipes coded as EA. Any U69EE should be a later 400 horse with without AC and without sidepipes. I chose these two documents as they are cars I own. I apologize the second document is hard to read.

Correct on EE and EB is L36 with C60
