Mysterious Part Number
I drove about 50 miles in the rain today and when I finally parked in my garage, I saw a slip of paper hanging out from below my rear license plate. So I tugged at it and saw that it appears to be an original part Id.
What is it? Why did it take a full year to fall out?
Mysteries abound, eh?
It also suggests that my car was assembled after 16-Aug-07 ...

223.168 & 213.012 & 906.633 & 214.005
Probably not many common parts with the A-class except screws and nuts etc. but this specific part on the other hand has been used on many other models in addition to 204 and 169: 164, 211, 216, 219, 221, 906.
