I know LotusBits have some of the stickers - I supplied the template for the expansion tank sticker and Mike had some new ones made up that very day by another business that has a small office on the same site as LotusBits.

mine is no longer there as i removed it to repaint,but i think it was an asbestos warning sticker.
mine is an earlier car so maybe the later cars did not have them.

Perhaps we should archive engine bay shots of original versions...early Excel, 86SE, 89SE, SA etc ?

Mine is an 89SE with original paint ...I think all stickers are present, but it would be nice to compare to be sure.

That sounds like an excellent idea

These are the stickers in the engine bay of my '91 Hethel.

This group are on the front of the driver's side inner wheel arch:

And this compliance label is on the back left, on top of what would be the pedal box area on a LHD Excel:

Apologies for the slightly tatty engine bay.


This would have been a useful post if you could add images, glad I went to all the trouble of taking the pics and re-sizing them....
