Default Where's the VIN Color Code Sticker?

I have an '05 and I can't find the White VIN sticker like on my 1998 LS400 and 2001 GS300.

I can't find the color code or the VIN sticker on the driver door jamb. There are two stickers. A yellow one for safety belt info and a black one for tire info. Based on where these are placed below the striker, and comparing it to my other Lexi, there's no place another sticker would fit. I found the little black VIN strips on every door...

Are they some place else on 2005's?

It is directly under the yellow and black stickers, but on the surface that faces directly to the side of the car.
Try opening the door, then step back two paces, and you should see it.

Thank You! This is my first Lexus to have the VIN sticker there. Where my car is parked in my garage it is virtually impossible to position your body correctly and this VIN sticker it is black.

The "two paces" was the clue that solved the riddle for me. Thanks Gene01!
