For the year, the manual inside the glove compartment should have the year. Of course, if the sticker is still present, that would show.

In the US, the VIN is placed in tons of places. On the engine, side rail of driver's door, inside of dash (can see through front windshield). I haven't looked specially at the Yaris but that is how my Scion tC was. If you can't find, write back and I will look.

Just a little advise....If you input your VIN at the carfax websight it will tell you everything you need to know. this is how I knew if the car I ordered was the right ne or not.
