They were dealer installed prior to customer delivery, so they can be pretty random. Some cars don't even have them.

Trivia Alert!
Every car sold new must have the window sticker. That sticker actually has a document name. It is a Monroney document.
It seems hard to believe but even in the 50s & 60s there were some crooked car dealers. Monroney sponsored the legislation to make it the law that only the consumer could remove the sticker that the manufacturer was required to put on the car.
Monroney sticker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Named for the same senator that the FAAs home office complex is named after.
And now you know the rest of the story! :cool:

The option sticker on the inside of the trunk lid has nothing to do with Monroney or any law. In fact, only Porsche has this sticker in this location, AFAIK. When the new car arrives at the dealer from factory, it has two of those stickers. One is affixed to the inside of trunk lid and the other is hanging from it on the contact paper. Someone at the factory on the end of the line takes the piece of contact paper with two identical stickers on it showing VIN and equipment, peels back the contact paper half way and sticks one on inside of hood with other hanging. The dealer is supposed to put the other one in the maintainance book, (or owners manual, can't remember).
If a Porsche does not have this sticker, the hood had been replaced and the body shop did not order a replacement sticker from factory.
As for being printed upside-down, that was a problem with the printer that day. :cool:
