How to Read Your VIN Number to Find the Right Car Parts

A complete guide to decoding your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to identify the correct OEM parts for your specific vehicle build.

Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a 17-character code that uniquely identifies your vehicle. Understanding how to read it helps you find the exact right parts.

Where to Find Your VIN

Your VIN appears on a plate visible through the windscreen at the base of the dashboard, on the driver door jamb sticker, and in your vehicle registration documents.

Breaking Down the VIN

The first three characters identify the manufacturer. Characters 4-9 describe the vehicle attributes. Characters 10-17 identify the production year, plant, and sequence number.
