French term or phrase: bandeau technique
The term is from a list of car parts with diagrams of the parts, so there's no sentence into which the term fits. Is 'technical panel' the correct translation, or does anyone have any better ideas? I'd describe the part as 'kind of rectangular with bits sticking out of the side'. It is located towards the rear of the car, but quite close to the centre.
Thanks!

(technical) information sticker

I think this is what one calls the notice, usually stuck on the R. rear door frame, that gives correct tire pressures,grade of engine oil, etc.

"inset"


Explanation:
Take it as it is: just a proposal. The description made me think about these "Cartouches" that seat at the bottom of technical drawings, and contain comments and related information.
The grand dictionnaire talks about "inset" for it.
