If you're looking to enable Year, Make, Model (YMM) filtering on your eCommerce auto parts store, you're in the right place! This guide walks you through the steps to get started with PCFitment and integrate the YMM filter seamlessly into your eCommerce store.
Step 1: Sign Up on PCFitment
First, you’ll need to sign up on PCFitment. After logging in, you can begin adding your auto parts data and their vehicle fitments directly into the system.
This article will guide you on how to add parts and vehicle fitment data after signing up. https://partsconnect.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/sections/115000303651-Getting-Started
Step 2: Send YMM Integration Request
Once you upload your parts and fitment data into PCFitment, simply send us a request for YMM integration for your eCommerce store — and we’ll handle the rest.
You can also enhance this setup by adding more vehicle-specific fields such as engine type, submodel, or trim, creating a powerful YMME (Year, Make, Model, Engine) search experience tailored to your catalog and customer needs.
This entire setup can be customized according to your theme, branding, and layout preferences.
Step 3: Search Your Parts Using the YMM Filter
Once the YMM filter is integrated with your store by our team, your customers can easily search the parts you've added into PCFitment using Year, Make, and Model filters.For example, I searched using 2024, Acura, ADX, and the system returned the relevant product — the same one had been added into PCFitment.
After selecting the product, you can see the vehicle fitment stripe, which confirms that this part fits or not the vehicle and category you searched for using the YMM filter. This means the product is a verified fit for your selected vehicle. Additionally, in the below, you’ll find detailed fitment information (compatible chart) showing all other vehicle models that this part fits. This makes it easy to check and understand the full range of fitment for the product.
Important Note:
You need to add the images and descriptions of the parts you uploaded in PCFitment manually into the product section of your eCommerce store.
Please ensure:The Part Number you add in PCFitment must exactly match the SKU field in your eCommerce product section.This matching is crucial because the PCFitment part number and your eCommerce SKU number need to be the same for the integration and sync to work correctly.
✅ PCFitment Part Number = eCommerce SKU
Here you can see that the eCommerce SKU and the PCFitment part number are the same.
YMM Integration Timeline
Once everything is set up:
- The initial sync after adding parts may take up to 24 hours to reflect in your eCommerce store.
- After this, any additions, updates, or deletions you make in PCFitment will be instantly updated on your eCommerce store.
