This article provides a procurement workflow, not a technical fitment claim. Always verify applications with authoritative catalogue data.

Start with the clearest identifier

Use the complete OEM/reference number from the removed part, packaging, technical documentation or an authorized parts source. Keep leading zeros and record every visible suffix.

Add vehicle context

Provide the VIN, production year, model designation, engine information and a clear product photo. References can be superseded or application-specific, so a number alone may not always settle fitment.

Let the supplier confirm

Ask for a written match showing the requested reference and the offered reference. TAFEX uses OEM references for identification and compatibility purposes; final supply follows verified catalogue data.
