Key Features

Layered Year → Make → Model → Engine dropdown selector with dependent AJAX population (each level filters the next)
AJAX-filtered product results via admin-ajax.php or a custom WooCommerce Store API route — no full-page reloads, cached for speed
VIN lookup field that decodes the VIN against your chosen data source and auto-fills the Year/Make/Model/Engine
Customer 'My Garage' — saved vehicles persisted to user meta so returning shoppers re-filter the catalog instantly
Structured fitment storage using a custom 'vehicle' post type plus product meta (not fragile free-text attributes)
CSV import/export of fitment mapped to SKUs, with a WP-Cron batch importer for large catalogs that won't PHP-timeout
Shortcode + Gutenberg block to place the finder on any page, the shop archive, or category templates
'Fits your vehicle' / 'Does not fit' badge on product and archive pages once a garage vehicle is selected
wp-admin settings screen for selector labels, which levels are required (e.g. make Engine optional), and result behavior
HPOS / custom-order-table compatible and built to respect WPML/Polylang and multisite where required
Developer hooks (actions & filters) so your theme or other plugins can extend the selector and result query
Optional 'Universal' / 'fits all vehicles' flag for accessories that bypass the fitment gate

About this Product

Selling auto parts on WooCommerce without fitment data is a returns machine: shoppers buy a part that doesn't fit their car, then open a ticket or a chargeback. WooCommerce core has no concept of vehicle fitment — no Year/Make/Model taxonomy, no VIN logic, no "does this fit my car?" gate. This plugin adds exactly that.

ECOSIRE builds a layered Year → Make → Model → Engine selector that drives an AJAX-filtered product grid (no full page reloads via admin-ajax.php or a registered WooCommerce Store API route), so only compatible parts show. Fitment is stored as structured data — a custom vehicle post type plus product meta — rather than fragile free-text attributes, and rendered with a shortcode/block you can drop on any page, the shop archive, or a [product_category] template.

A VIN lookup field decodes the vehicle (via your chosen VIN/NHTSA-style data source) and auto-resolves the Year/Make/Model/Engine so a customer can paste one VIN instead of clicking four dropdowns. Logged-in customers get a "My Garage" — saved vehicles persisted to user meta (and the orders table under HPOS) so returning shoppers instantly re-filter the whole catalog to their car.

Merchants manage fitment in bulk via CSV import/export mapped to SKUs, with a WP-Cron-friendly batch importer for large catalogs so you don't time out on a 200,000-row file.

This is build-to-order: ECOSIRE scopes it to your theme, catalog structure and data source, builds it against your WooCommerce/WordPress version, installs it on your site (staging first), and supports it after launch. It is not an instant marketplace download — you get a plugin engineered for your store, plus a human who knows how it works.

What you get

  • A custom WooCommerce plugin packaged for your site, built against your exact WordPress + WooCommerce versions
  • Installation on your staging environment first, then production deployment by ECOSIRE
  • Initial fitment data load — we import your existing Year/Make/Model/Engine CSV and map it to your SKUs
  • wp-admin configuration of the selector, VIN source, required levels and My Garage behavior
  • Theme integration so the finder and 'fits/does not fit' badges match your storefront styling
  • Admin + author documentation: how to add fitment to a product, run a CSV import, and manage vehicles
  • Post-launch support window and compatibility maintenance for WordPress/WooCommerce updates (per your plan)

Who this is for

Auto parts retailer drowning in 'wrong fit' returns

Sells brake pads, filters and OEM parts on WooCommerce and eats refunds and support tickets because nothing stops a customer from buying a part that doesn't fit their car. Needs a hard fitment gate, not a guess.

Tyre & wheel shop wanting fast vehicle-first browsing

Wants shoppers to pick their vehicle once and see only matching tyres/wheels/accessories across the whole catalog, with a saved garage so repeat buyers don't re-enter their car every visit.

Accessories store migrating a huge fitment spreadsheet

Already maintains Year/Make/Model/Engine compatibility in CSV/ERP and needs a reliable bulk import (and export back out) mapped to SKUs without manually tagging tens of thousands of products by hand.

Frequently Asked Questions about Auto Parts Year/Make/Model Fitment Finder

How long does delivery take, since this is built-to-order and not an instant download?

After a short scoping call we confirm your WooCommerce/WordPress versions, theme, data source and catalog size. A typical build runs about one working week: we develop against a copy of your site, install on staging for your review, then deploy to production. Larger catalogs or a custom VIN data source can extend that — we give you a firm timeline in writing before any work starts. There is no marketplace download link; you receive a plugin built and installed for your specific store.

What ongoing support and updates do I get after launch?

Your plan includes a post-launch support window for bug fixes and compatibility maintenance as WordPress and WooCommerce release updates (including HPOS and Store API changes). Because ECOSIRE built it, support is from the people who wrote the code — not a generic ticket queue. We can also extend support and add features (new selector levels, additional data sources) as your catalog grows.

Where does the VIN data come from — do you provide the vehicle database?

VIN decoding needs a data source. We can wire the lookup to a free/public source such as the NHTSA vPIC VIN API, or to a paid commercial fitment/VIN provider you license. The same applies to the Year/Make/Model/Engine catalog: most clients already maintain this as a CSV or in an ERP, which we import. We don't resell a third-party vehicle database, but we integrate the one you choose during scoping.

Will this work with my theme, page builder and existing plugins?

Yes — the finder ships as a shortcode and a Gutenberg block, so it drops into Elementor, the block editor, or a hard-coded template. We integrate it against your live theme and test it alongside your existing setup on staging before going live. It's built HPOS-compatible and exposes WordPress actions and filters so your developers (or ours) can extend the selector and the product query.

Can it handle a very large catalog without slowing the site or timing out on import?

Yes. Fitment is stored as structured data with indexed queries rather than free-text attributes, AJAX results are cached, and the CSV importer runs in WP-Cron-friendly batches so a multi-hundred-thousand-row file won't hit a PHP execution-time limit. We load-test against a copy of your real catalog during the build.
