I was on the phone with my dad standing by the shoebox, when something caught my eye. I found a sticker in between the top of the headliner in the roof in the space where my sunroof is!

Pic with the sticker removed. (pulled it out before i thought to take a pic)


The sticker:


Since I'm not the original owner of the car, i don't know what this is.

I believe my build date is 01/05, but the sticker has a date of 07/05. Was this installed after the fact, or am i wrong about the build date?

Anyone familiar with this? It seems "Grupo Antolin" supplies interior components.

 

I think the date is written in European form: DD/MM/YYYY

 

I'm not sure why it was necessary to remove??!! And I think Kingpin is right, European Date Format DD/MM/YY.

 

Looks like an inventory control tag.

 

It looks like your sunroof is dirty Nah but seriously I think they are right. Take it to MINI and double check

 

That format (DD-MM-YY) is used in most of the world actually. A handful (20-30) of countries use the YY-MM-DD format and MM-DD-YY is used in about half a dozen to a dozen countries, two of which are the US and Canada.

 

I work at a gm dealer in the service department, that looks like a part tag.
all of our parts have tags on them telling us what the part is, build date of that part, part number etc. just a guess but that part in your sunroof may have been repalced at one point in time.

 

It looks like a sticker/label from the company that manufacturers the sunroof cassette for BMW/MINI.
