Aftermarket Professionals Can Now Find Parts Using Valid License Plate Numbers

SMTP License Plate Lookup

ShowMeTheParts’ license plate lookup makes it faster and easier for Aftermarket professionals to find the parts they need using valid license plate numbers from all 50 states.

 

Vertical Development decided to add a license plate lookup feature to ShowMeTheParts after receiving requests from customers who felt they needed the feature in order to stay competitive, and after determining that access to a key component in the Department of Motor Vehicles data was now available. This critical component allows ShowMeTheParts to filter out parts that should not be made available for vehicles in a query. 

For example, vehicles with the same Year/Make/Model could be available in 2WD or 4WD and require different part numbers for each drive type.  A license plate search identifies the exact specifications of the vehicle and removes the parts that don’t match.

Visitors to ShowMeTheParts.com select the license plate tab, and then enter a valid license plate number and state. The screen will update with product selections based on the data entered. Users can then select the product they are searching for from the drop-down list.

Parts companies can add their brands and product lines to the ShowMeTheParts.com database, where end-users will have instant access to find them via the new license plate lookup feature.  In addition, companies using ShowMeTheParts to power their own online catalogs or mobile apps can now take advantage of this new exciting feature.

The new ShowMeTheParts’ license plate lookup helps to reduce mistakes, resulting in fewer returns, more money saved, and happier customers.
