Date of Manufactured

Where do I find that date the car was manufactured? I thought it was on the inside of the drivers door someplace?

Some of the online VIN decoder's only work up to 2010 M.Y. Perhaps that is why. I did not see any M.Y. limits, but I suspect this one too only works up to 2010 M.Y. cars.
