FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• My Part Didn't Fit or I Received the Incorrect Part: Manufacturers may use different designs than original equipment (to reduce cost, improve performance, fit additional applications, etc.) so the part you received may look different than your original. Sometimes manufacturers make minor changes without changing the part number so the part may look slightly different than the picture in our catalog, but the fit and function should be the same.  If the difference is beyond cosmetic and the part will not work for your vehicle, report the problem below.  Don't try to alter it or force it to fit.  This will void your return.   Do not send back the part at your cost.  You will not be reimbursed for your shipping costs, and the package will be treated as a return for refund, and you will only be refunded for the cost of the returned item.
   
• I'm Missing a Part: Your order may arrive in separate boxes.  Verify you have received all of your packages by reviewing the information on your order status page along with your packing lists.  Ensure that no items are on backorder.  Open all of your packages and open each part.  Sometimes we tape small parts to other boxes or put them inside other product boxes.  If you still cannot find the part, report the problem below.
   
• The Part I Received is Broken, Damaged or Defective: To help us determine the cause of the damage and tell us how you would like to proceed, report the problem below.
   
• Am I Responsible for Return Shipping: In most cases the answer is Yes.  The only exceptions to this are if you received a part number that is not what you ordered, an item arrived defective, or if the manufacturer confirms our catalog information is incorrect.
