Here's a shot of the VIN# and it's location from the buckets I talked about in a post a few days ago.  They are a little clearer than the views Mike posted.  Pretty cool that our cars have these.    Thanks, Mike

FYI. If you do not see the number stamped in your bucket, chances are you
have an aftermarket replacement.
