Default paint plate

Some help please for us that don't speak GM tech.

I'm looking for the paint code plate for my 1984. GM shop manual say it is located on right front hinge plate. I looked all over the right front door hinge area and nothing.

What are they trying to say??

What is the month year of your build? Drivers door Certification Label. Many say that only 'very early' '84 have the Metal Trim Plate.

If you don't have a SPID label, many '84 don't. SPID Label for '84 I believe would have been in the Drivers Rear compartment.
