First this, inside the hood. What would they be putting for auth. mods? What were the "campaign"s?
66124


Then this, up near firewall on passenger side:
66125


And this, inside driver's door:
66126


And this last sticker, can you tell me, where on there is the paint number? Any other interesting info on it that I didn't already get from the vin decode?

66127

Ext paint FL is the paint code.

No idea on the blue sticker that doesn't seem to be filled out. Some kind of dealer work based on a TSB (wild guess)?

But it doesn't have any writing on it. The word 'campaign' puzzled me, as if they were pushing some mod or something.

I think the one inside the driver door is probably simply a bar code for scanning during the build (my guess).

Paint is Toreador Red Metallic.

Like ALL things on-line(or in real life, lol) there can be mistakes, so its not the word of Ford or Mazda :)

The larger HCL4 sticker looks like the engine computers Software Version, that same number should be on the engine computer case if you ever remove it


Image here of a filled out Mazda sticker: https://www.rx7club.com/attachments/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/671941d1501419610-question-about-sticker-door-jam-hastingsfdforericwarran010_zps0f7a7767.jpg

So Campaign is the reference number of what change was done
And by which Dealer
And on what Date

The word campaign actually fits this better than "Ref Num", lol
Campaign: a series of activities designed to produce a particular result

My credo
If you don't have time to do it right will you have time to do it over?
The blue sticker is an authorized modification decal that we used to apply if we changed something emissions related as part of a recall. That was back before widespread computer use in dealer shops. Campaign was the euphemism of the day for recall.

That's not a Ford Motor Company website, so it won't have everything "Ranger", and can also have mistakes
Its just collected information

Automotive Paint websites should have what you need for the color code
If you can get it and confirm it then send a message to Blueovaltech, they can update the page to include code 32
Thats how the info is gathered, or corrected if there is a mistake, by users
