Don't think it is, I'm pretty sure mine doesn't. One of the 3 Saxos I owned (embarrising I know) had it done, even had the the reg in the rear lights. Just think it was a gimmick some security company did a few years ago.

Used to be quite a common thing to do... Stick the reg on every removable piece...that way when things got stolen you knew where they had come from...
Now all modern parts have IDs Date and times of manufacture which tie them back to the ccar...
