Default Paint Code Help: u9966

I need some help my 99 Trans Am has a couple of chips that are driving me crazy, and I want some touch up paint. Here is the problem the paint code listed on my car (u9966) does not exist, or at least I can not find it.
If some one has some touch up paint for a 99 w/ the code 9966 can you please give me the paint brand and the product number, that way I can touch up my car.
any help would greatly be appreciated.

Go to your local Pontiac dealer. They will get it for you if they don't have it in stock.

My car is metallic silver. I am going to try the Scratch fix that corresponds to 9566 but I think it is not really going to match. so if it does not I will have a bottle of scratch fix to sell

The OEM code is 13U... should be able to cross reference it at any paint store for different brands etc

I found a pretty close match with 13U code, I bought Dupli-color GM 340. I tested it out and it's almost perfect, I blame the slight (very slight difference) on the fact that my car paint is probrably a little faded.
Either way I am happy.

The only question left is why did they put u9966 on the RPO sticker?

Thanks everyone.

Silver is a very hard color to match.
