Auto parts sourcing starts with the exact application

Send one part or a mixed-SKU list with enough detail to compare the same requirement across suppliers.

The reference
Complete OE/OEM or old-part marking and clear photos.
The application
Vehicle, year, engine and relevant dimensions or interfaces.
The order
Quantity per part, acceptable alternatives and destination.

A reference number is a search input. Fitment, product identity, inspection and delivered cost need separate confirmation.

Match auto parts beyond the reference number

A matching listing is the start of a fitment check. Compare the dimensions and vehicle coverage before choosing a supplier.

  • Compare the OEM reference with the stated vehicle and year.
  • Ask for measured bore, thickness, height or thread dimensions.
  • Review part photographs and packing before shipment.
