Default Where is the paint code

Can any one tell me where the label containing the option codes and the paint code is located on an 07'. It is usually found in the glove box or the center console but its not there. I have searched the car over and can't find it.

Are you sure it's not in the glovebox? That's where it was on my 05, and now on my 06. Just a white label on the inside of the glovebox door with a series of 3-character letters & numbers.

I just looked at mine again. It's labeled "Service Parts Identification" and it's actually turned sideways. It's on the left side of the inside of the door.

On my '07 it's not actually inside the glove box where you put stuff. It's to the left of the bin when the glove box is opened.

Thanks guys !!! I found it. I was looking inside the glove box and the light didn't illuminate the side area where it is located. My flashlight did the trick. Now I can do some painting

Way to go Frank. You made it clear enough that even someone in the dark with only a flashlight could find it.

I thought my description would be enough, but evidently I still had too much light while looking at mine.

Usually 2 numbers and maybe the letter "U" on the end. It's about the last thing on the label.

Here's an example (67U following the 3LT):

And don't bring back ancient threads like this, ask in a new thread.
