Location of engine and chassis number on 2004

Where is the physical location of the engine number and chassis number on a 2004? I need this information and have the numbers stenciled so I can register my car for license plates here in the Philippines.


Assistance is appreciated!!!!

Well the chassis number is located on right side strut tower next to the engine. if you have a strut brace or strut plate on you may need to remove it/them to see the number.

The engine serial number is on the left side of the engine block, just above the oil pan.

And the VIN is located on the forward edge of the dash on the left side.


Motor on!

+1 its on the passenger side strut tower. And will have a clear sticker over it unless someone peeled it off.

+1 on the VIN and engine block, the engine block sometimes will have the sticker on the back right near the valve cover , but most of them fall off over time.
