The Lotus Eclat window sticker — build, options & years
The Lotus Eclat ran from 1981–2008. Its Monroney label captures exactly how each one left the factory — the build, the options it was optioned with and the price.
Which year's sticker do I need? Any Lotus Eclat VIN works — ForCar reads the exact model year automatically. On owner data the cleanest years are 1981, 1982, 1983; the most-complained-about are 2008, 2007, 1997. For year-by-year recalls, MPG and safety, see the full Lotus Eclat VIN decoder.
What's on the Lotus Eclat sticker
Every Monroney label carries the same required blocks: MSRP with itemised options, EPA fuel economy, NHTSA safety ratings, standard and optional equipment, and parts-content origin. Every Eclat VIN returns its own build rather than a generic spec.
For how to read each block, what to do if the sticker is lost, and how it differs from a build sheet, see the window sticker guide.

Where to find the VIN on a Lotus Eclat
- WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
- Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every Eclat, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
- DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Lotus Eclat all three must show the same number.
All four must match. A Lotus Eclat whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
Window sticker — frequently asked
Is the recreated Lotus Eclat sticker the same as the original?
It rebuilds the factory equipment, EPA fuel economy and NHTSA safety from official records, so the core Monroney content matches. Dealer-added options and destination charges vary by sale, so the printed total on one Lotus Eclat may differ from another.
Where do I find the VIN on a Lotus Eclat?
Lower-left of the windshield, the driver's door-jamb sticker, or the registration and insurance documents — all three must agree. For what a window sticker is, how to read each block and what to do if yours is lost, see the window sticker guide.
