Looking for location of SPID label 87 Trans Am

I can't seem to find a SPID label in my 1987 Trans Am anywhere, I've looked. Where are the common places it would be? Nothing under my center console lid, nothing on passenger side door. Any help would be awesome.

It's supposed to be on the underside of the console lid, according to the service manual. However, I seem to possibly remember mine inside the rear glove box in the hatch area (the locking compartment on the driver's side), attached to the insulation.

I just had new keys cut for the doors, t-tops, hatch, and that storage compartment. I don't know if I've even opened it yet since I've had the car!! I'm off to look now, and hopefully find some other treasures like a large sum of cash, or.... just rust.

That compartment is a cardboard box glued to the trim panel. If there's rust, you need to remove the panel with the box to find it. Also, did you look at the insulation on the back of the door?

If you have one, it's inside the console stuck to the side.
