Where to find the VIN
On most cars the VIN is visible at the base of the windscreen (driver side) and on a label in the driver-side door opening; check your registration document too.
China-spec vs export-spec
The Tang (first generation 2015, second generation 2018) and the Tang L (2025, on newer platforms) are different cars, so do not assume parts fit both. The Sealion 8 and Atto 8 names are also used for the Tang L, so confirm exactly which car you have. DM, DM-i, DM-p and EV versions have different drivetrains, and facelifts changed the front end. Charging inlets differ by market: China-spec cars use the GB/T standard and export versions are built for the destination market. Send the VIN.
