Newbie quick question - info door label

Hello, please be patient with me. I am about to buy a gorgeous '09 ML350. I am doing some research before I close the deal tomorrow morning and I just realized that I didn't see a sticker/label inside the door (where all manufacturers put a sticker with the vehicle info, paint, pressure etc)

Is that a MB thing? Because if it's not, then it could be a sign that the door was replaced/damaged/painted etc.

Looking at the operator's manual there is no mention of sticker/label at the usual location, but it shows a "certification label on the driver's door pillar. Is that it and just placed in a different location?

Please help.

you were not looking AT the door , were you? the labels are on the car frame (or i guess they called it the door pillars) where the driver door latches. I see both manufacturer info and tire pressure recommendation labels on my cars.

Thanks. I was looking at the door jamb, where most cars have the label. It looks like MB does not put the label there, but rather on the frame/pillar. No concern then

I just put a down-payment on the ML350 and should have it in my hands later this week.
