VIN number information?

does anyone know how to extract information from a CL VIN number. Specifically the build month/year? I know its on the plate on the driver's door but I want to be able to do it from the internet.

I don’t think that info can be found in the VIN.
Only the last six numbers will get you close to the build date if you know the length of the production run.

The build date is on the panel on the driver side door.

VIN = 17 digit number; for our car:

19U - indicates Honda brand, and made in America

YA4 - CL model

n - 1 indicates 6 speed, 2 indicates auto

n - submodel: 3 indicates base, 4 indicates premium, 5 indicates premium w/Navi, 6 indicates Type S, 7 indicates Type S w/Navi

1 - check digit

3 - year, 3 indicating 2003 (1 indicates 2001...)

A - factory, A indicating Marysville, OH

123456 - 'serial number', sequential number assigned, not necessarily time off/on assembly line

The build date is listed separately. The VIN numbers are assigned sequentially, but don't necessarily indicate time of emergence from factory. Manuals and Auto VINs are mixed together in the 2003 model year.
