Default Can someone get my options list from the VIN?

I thought I saw somewhere where there was a way to retrieve the options list by using the cars VIN. I thought I had mine written down somewhere but I can't seem to find it. The VIN is WP0JB0926JS860204. Anything anyone can tell me about the car would be greatly appreciated. I ran the carfax on the car but It didn't show anything bad. The listing on the car said it had an LSD. It would be good to either verify or not. I know it is possible to do all of this by looking at the car but here on the east coast it is raining like heck. This car is outside till I can get the 79 out of the garage. Also, I can barely walk these days so a trip down to the car is out of the quesiton. If it is not too much trouble for someone, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

According to PET7, its got M018, M139, M220, M340, M418, M494, M553 and M650. So yes it has a 40% LSD.

Thank you guys. That is exactly what I was hoping for. I have created a file with all this stuff and will have it from now on. I an glad to see the LSD even if it is only 40%. This is just an awsome car and for once, I got much more than I bargened for.
