Club Car® Parts
What year is my Club Car golf cart?
Since 1981 Club Car® Golf Carts have positioned their serial numbers just under the glove box on the passenger’s side of the vehicle. The serial number of each vehicle is printed on a bar code decal.
A: Two letters indicate the vehicle model.
B: Four digits indicate the model year and production week.
C: Six digits following the hyphen represent the unique sequential number.
Example Identification
This Example Serial Number is for a (PH)Precedent I2 Excel (0901)Year-2009.
Prior to 1981 Models:
Find the serial number by raising the seat and locating the aluminium, I-beam frame section closest to the batteries on the driver’s side.
Note: If the plate is missing, it is a 1975-1980 model if it has two brake pedals and one accelerator pedal.
Differences Between 1982-2000.5 and 2000.5-Present Club Car® DS Models

1982 – 2000.5 DS Model
- Two distinct individual seat backs.
- Silver aluminium top supports.
- Thin top design.

2000.5 – Present DS Model
- Connected (one piece) seat back.
- Black top supports.
- Thicker top with handles on each side of the back third.
Note: Both models shown above were made in the year 2000. Therefore, if your Club Car® is a 2000 model, we must know which style (one seat back version or two seat back version) you have so we can provide the correct accessory or part for your vehicle.
