I was looking for a fan clutch on Pelican parts and RealOEM (that may rate for it's own thread since looks like the E30 318 one is NLA) and saw that RealOEM asks for manufacturing date down to the month sometimes. Is this info on the car somewhere? I guess it may be detailed in a manual, but I'm here and the manual isn't, so I'm asking the knowing masses.
What say you, masses? How do I determine date of origin?
:confused:

Go to Real OEM and enter the last 7 digits of your VIN. Month and year will show up.

Pull your backseat bottom/base and take a look at the build sheet if it's still attached.
