Stupid T100 VIN question
... how many digits should it be?
Most VINs are 17 characters, I know. My truck though, seems to have an 18 character VIN, and that's causing me a minor issue with getting the new speedometer cable. >.>

Plug yer VIN into ToyoDIY's VIN lookup...
Yes...it should be 17 characters.

A VIN is a unique, 17-character car identification number, that looks like this: 1NXBR12E60Z408794. You can find your VIN stamped on the body of your car, usually under the windshield or under the hood. A valid VIN will never contain the letters I, O or Q, so you can be sure those are digits 1 and 0, but it is still easy to confuse a B with an 8, a C with a 0 and a V with a Y. If unsure, check alternative VIN locations.
Note: you can also enter a frame serial number, which may be easier to obtain for Japanese models (the frame number looks like: ZZE110-Z408794).

the plate on the door/door frame. >.>
This is what is on both, I've checked it several times because.. it shoudln't have that many characters: JT4UN24D3T10031226
After re-rechecking, and this time taking a picture of the damn VIN with my phone, I realize somehow.. I managed to get an extra 1 in there, that every other time I checked, I just missed. I dunno if it was a typo when I wrote it, or what.. >.>
Now, I feel like an idiot.
