# Finding the Right Part for Your Vehicle

## How to search for parts on ShopEarl using your vehicle information, and what to do if you need help.

You can search for parts on ShopEarl by entering your vehicle's year, make, and model, or by using your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) for a more exact match.

**How to search for parts:**

1. Go to [ShopEarl.com](https://shopearl.com) and enter your vehicle's year, make, and model in the search bar
2. Select the part category you need (engine, transmission, body panel, etc.)
3. Browse the available listings — each one shows the part condition, price, seller, and photos
4. Check the fitment information on each listing to confirm it matches your vehicle

**Using your VIN for better results:**

Your VIN is the most accurate way to verify that a part fits your vehicle. You can find your VIN on your vehicle registration, insurance card, or on the driver's side dashboard near the windshield. Enter your VIN during search or at checkout to help verify fitment.

**What if I can't find the part I need?**

If you cannot find your part on ShopEarl, or if you are not sure which part is right for your vehicle, contact our sales team. They can search inventory that may not appear online and help you find the right match.

**Tips for finding the right part:**

- Always verify fitment before ordering — check that your year, make, model, and trim are listed on the part's compatibility section
- If you have your VIN, use it — it gives the most accurate match
- Pay attention to part notes from the seller — they may include important details about compatibility or condition
- If you are unsure, call our sales team before ordering. They can verify fitment and answer questions about specific listings.
