Use the arrow keys to move between questions once one has focus.
A vendor sits between a buyer with a requirement and the supply that can meet it. In practice that means three things: helping you establish what the item actually is, translating that into a requirement that can be sourced, and handling the commercial side — quantity, destination and repeat supply.
What a vendor does not do is decide on your behalf whether a part is right for a vehicle. That is established against the actual vehicle and the actual item. See products for the areas enquiries usually fall into.
At minimum: the vehicle or application, the seating position, what the item is, how many you need and where it has to reach. If you can add photographs, add them — they usually settle more than the written description does.
The vendor process page sets this out in six stages, and the resources page turns it into a checklist you can work down.
Yes, and you should. Photographs are the fastest way to remove ambiguity from a component enquiry.
Four frames usually cover it: the item fitted in the vehicle, the item removed, the mounting point it came from, and a close view of any marking on it. Take them in daylight on a plain contrasting surface with the part filling the frame. Attach them to your email to info@autogleam.in — the enquiry form on this site cannot carry file attachments, so images travel by email.
Yes. Larger and repeating requirements are a normal part of a vendor conversation, and they benefit most from being described precisely.
State the quantity with units attached, break it down per vehicle and per item, and say whether the figure is the whole need or one instalment of a recurring one. If the quantity is genuinely uncertain, give a range and say what it depends on — that is a real answer.
Describe the vehicle as fully as you reasonably can, and always name the seating position separately. Restraint arrangements vary between variants, markets and builds, so detail that feels excessive to you is often exactly what makes the difference.
For commercial vehicles, the body configuration and seat layout matter as much as the vehicle name. The vehicle applications page sets out what each context changes.
Work from the strongest evidence downwards. A marking already present on the part outranks everything else; then the vehicle it came from; then photographs; then a written description.
Search every face of the item for moulded, stamped, printed or woven characters, transcribe them exactly, and photograph them close up. The technical reference page covers the method in full.
Yes. Workshops are among the best-placed enquirers, because the vehicle is usually present and the old part is usually in hand — which is the strongest identification input there is.
If you are working to a deadline with a customer waiting, say so in the first message, and send the photographs with it rather than promising them for later.
Yes. Describing a requirement as a pattern rather than as a one-off event lets the conversation be set up once instead of restarted each time.
Useful detail includes the vehicle mix involved, typical quantity per order, roughly how often the need recurs, and the destination. Consistency between orders usually matters more to these buyers than speed on any single one.
Confirm that the item matches your actual vehicle and seating position, that the quantity and destination on the enquiry are still correct, and that everyone on your side agrees on what is being ordered.
For a safety-critical component, also confirm that selection and fitting will be handled by someone qualified to do it. Nothing on this site should be treated as confirmation that a given item is suitable for a given vehicle — that is established directly, against the vehicle itself.
No. Dimensions, load ratings, materials, standards, approvals and availability are not published anywhere on this site.
Publishing figures that have not been verified against a real item would be misleading in an ordinary purchase and unacceptable in a safety-related one. Where a specification matters to your requirement, it is confirmed directly in the enquiry conversation.

Those are the only contact channels published for this domain. No office address, office hours, messaging number or social profile has been published, and this site does not invent them.
Still have a question?
Ask it with the requirement attached — vehicle, position, quantity and destination. That way the answer can be specific rather than general.
