Rocco identity swapping?

[killmurder_@hotmail.com (Jerry Carter)]

It's also stamped into the rain tray, the firewall, often one of the strut
towers has it stamped there, there should also be a sticker in the back with
it printed, as well as a stamping should be under the lip under the hatch.

The reason I know this is my car sisn't have the one on the dash, so I had
to find it in at least 3 places, I found it in 20;.
