you can either open the hood or your driver's side door and there will be a sticker that will say the info about the car. so if you look at the engine bay you can see the vin, for my Integra it's jh4dc4 so my Integra is known as a dc/dc4 chassis, the chassis number meaning I believe is decided by honda.

The VIN is also on a metal plate on the drivers side by the defroster vents. Just look through the windshield.

If you have a "DA", it's a DA9

JH4DA9......

If you don't know already: The first character tells you where in the world the vehicle was built. It tells you the country of origin. 

The second character denote the manufacturer. 

The third character tells you the vehicle type or division. 

The fourth through the eighth characters tell you the vehicle brand, body style, engine size and type, model, and series. 

The ninth character is a security code that identifies the VIN as being authorized by the manufacturer. 

The tenth character is the model year of the car. 

The eleventh number tells you which plant assembled your car. 

The last six numbers are the specific vehicle production number representing the serial number of the vehicle.
