2010 cannot add factory remote start. As Oldblue said the RPO label on the glovebox door tells you everything that was on the car at the factory. AP3 does not mean Remote start on 2010 models, look for wires going to the hood latch or the option to turn it on in the DIC personalization menu.

I thought by 2010, the steel wheels where the 5 spoke and hubcap, not the 18 hole steelies.

I have a 2011 LS bought new with 18-hole steelies, manual cloth seats, leather wheel with radio controls, Onstar, Sirius XM, and the loathed crappy base speakers.

One thing to keep in mind is that rental companies and other fleet customers can order (and delete) stuff that dealers and retail customers can’t.

Both my 2008 and 2011 LT rental fleet cars had 5 spoke. So much so that the Sales Manager claimed they were "mags" on the 2008.

My rental fleet 2011 had the chrome plastic cap over aluminium wheels.

Those chrome-clad plastic rims have steel 5 spoke rims behind them., I don't think they were aluminum.

I have them here in my basement, they are aluminium! They are the 2LT RPO P23

Hey folks! Enjoying the conversation. I think these "rental" cars are pretty much mutts - they can have all types of weird combinations. Mines has a power driver seat only, no remote start but has running boards! At first the lack of remote start was bugging me but what the heck, if it's that cold out, I'll grab the nice car or better yet, just won't go out at all, lol.

Right now I'm going over my to-do check list - wash/polish/wax before it gets cold, the sun visor was floppy (easy zip tie method fix), the headlights were yellow (elbow grease and sandpaper) and the key fobs only work intermittently. Lot of little chips that need to be taken care of to slow (not stop) the pitting rust - the color code list U637R - which says gray but my eyes see blue, lol,, and the steel wheels either need a good shot of Rustoleum or replacing totally. The usual GM speaker blown problem is in full effect on the the driver's side and the lack of steering wheel controls is kind of bugging me, probably more once I put in an aftermarket head unit. The old steering wheel mod parts are non-existent but if I run across a used SS leather steering wheel, I may make that mod. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase...so far!

But why cover aluminum with chromed ABS?

Those 17 inch wheels were left overs from the Pontiac G6 , so GM decided to cover them with those glue on covers. These are YouTube videos about removing the plastic, but there are no provisions for the centre caps.


SS leather steering wheels with radio controls pop up on EBay every now and then ,
