GMT800 A/C Refrigerant Label – Reproduction (2003–2004)

Description

Restore the 2003–2004 GMT800 A/C Refrigerant Information Label

Bring your engine compartment back to a clean, factory-style appearance with this reproduction GMT800 A/C Refrigerant Information label.

This product recreates the bilingual English/French artwork associated with GM reference 15206697. It includes the R-134a high-pressure warning, PAG-oil wording, airbag service notice, diesel-engine warning, and refrigerant charge table used on matching GMT800 trucks and SUVs.

The reproduction is printed on an oversized sheet with a white trim keyline. Trim around the keyline before applying the finished label at the vehicle’s original fan-shroud, radiator-support, or radiator-air-deflector location.

Charge Table Shown on This Label

Service note: The table above reproduces the figures shown on this specific label design. Refrigerant capacity can vary with model, body style, front-only versus front-and-rear HVAC, production revision, and previous vehicle modifications. Always verify the original vehicle label and applicable service information before charging the system.

What the Label Includes

• “R-134a Refrigerant Under High Pressure” safety heading
• English and French caution and notice panels
• Service-by-qualified-personnel warning
• Service-manual and diagnostic-procedure reminder
• Airbag service notice
• R-134a refrigerant and PAG-oil wording
• Four-row refrigerant charge table

2003–2004 Primary Fitment

Selected 2005 First-Design Applications

GM catalogs also associate reference 15206697 with selected 2005 vehicles as the first-design label.

A 2005 vehicle should order this reproduction only when:

• The original label shows reference 15206697.
• The charge table shows 3.0 lb for Suburban-style front-and-rear A/C.
• The utility front-and-rear figure is 2.7 lb.
• The complete warning artwork and PAG-oil wording match this product.

Selected 2005 applications may instead use GM reference 10388864, identified in catalogs as the second-design label with revised Suburban and utility refrigerant figures.

How This Differs From the Other GMT800 A/C Labels

Do not choose solely by body style or model year. The original reference number and complete charge table are the controlling fitment checks.

Applications Not Included

• 1999–2002 vehicles using the early-spec label
• 2005 vehicles using the 10388864 second-design artwork
• 2006 vehicles using the later charge-table design
• Vehicles whose original refrigerant quantities differ from those printed here
• Vehicles converted to a refrigerant other than R-134a
• Vehicles with modified or non-original HVAC systems
• Applications carrying different market-specific or export warning artwork

Trim-to-Fit Construction

The label is intentionally printed on an oversized sheet. The white keyline defines the intended finished edge and gives the installer room to create a clean final cut.

Complete all trimming while the backing remains attached. Use sharp scissors or a precision craft knife, a metal straightedge, and a protected cutting surface.

Installation

1. Compare the reproduction with the original part number, artwork, and charge table.
2. Confirm the correct original mounting location.
3. Test-fit the label while the backing remains attached.
4. Trim carefully along the white keyline.
5. Remove the damaged original label and as much remaining adhesive as practical.
6. Clean the mounting surface with a residue-free cleaner appropriate for plastic or painted metal.
7. Remove grease, wax, silicone dressing, dirt, and loose material.
8. Allow the surface to dry completely and cool before application.
9. Peel back a small portion of the liner and align one edge.
10. Apply gradually from one side to the other while pressing outward to reduce trapped air.
11. Press firmly across the complete label, especially around its edges.
12. Allow approximately 24 hours for the adhesive to set before washing or exposing it to cleaners or solvents.

Do not install over heavy texture, grease, loose paint, or a hot engine component. Gentle warming may improve adhesion in cool conditions, but excessive heat can distort the vinyl.

Care

Clean the installed label with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner suitable for vinyl. Wipe gently from the center toward the edges. Avoid abrasive pads, aggressive solvents, and high-pressure spray directed at the trimmed edges.

Shipping

Free shipping is included to all 50 U.S. states

Most products ship within approximately 2–5 business days. Typical delivery is approximately 6–13 days from order placement, depending on production time, carrier, and destination. Tracking information is provided when available.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this fit every 2003 or 2004 GMT800?

No. It reproduces one specific A/C information-label design. Compare GM reference 15206697, the complete warning artwork, and the refrigerant quantities with the original vehicle.

Does it fit a 2005 GMT800?

It fits selected 2005 first-design applications when the original label is 15206697 and the complete charge table matches. Other 2005 vehicles use the different 10388864 second-design label.

What is the difference between 15206697 and 10388864?

GM catalogs distinguish 15206697 as the first-design label and 10388864 as a second-design label with revised refrigerant quantities for certain Suburban and utility configurations.

Does this label include PAG-oil information?

Yes. This design includes the instruction to use R-134a refrigerant and PAG oil according to the listed specifications.

Does it cover front and rear A/C?

Yes. The table includes both front-only and front-and-rear A/C applications. Verify the correct row for the vehicle.

Does it fit diesel trucks?

The artwork includes the original diesel-engine glow-plug and starting-fluid warning. Exact fitment still requires the original 15206697 label and matching A/C charge information.

Is this a genuine General Motors label?

No. This is a newly manufactured aftermarket reproduction made for GMT Central. It is not a genuine GM, New Old Stock, or licensed General Motors part.

Is the label pre-cut?

No. It is printed oversized with a white trim keyline and must be trimmed before installation.

Can I rely on this label as the only source when charging the A/C system?

No. This reproduction is intended for restoration and convenient service reference. Confirm the correct refrigerant type and charge through vehicle-specific service information before servicing the system.
