Hello everyone, except the vin from the right side there is maybe on another place too? Can you send photos with dimensions and photos please? Thank you...

Moved to a more appropriate forum section, hope you don't mind. And welcome here on the forum, feel free to introduce yourself and your car in the Owner's Gallery!

There are 3 regular locations:

1. Stamped on top of the right front wing as you mentioned
2. Card size VIN tag just next to the right front wing
3. Card size production tag on top of the the crossbar that runs underneath the dash (requires removal of the dash to see)

1. and 2. next to each other:


For some countries and only in certain years, additional tags are placed, for example in the trunk (Sweden, Belgium) or in the engine bay near the firewall (Zwitzerland). Swedish cars that were equipped with an EGR system also had the VIN tag relocated near the firewall (usually on the wiper mechanism cover) to make room for the EGR control unit.

Witch would be a more apropiate forum section, sorry, I m new here and I don t know everything, thank you so much..

Example under dash tag, this is a 316 but 323 is in the same place.
