PCFitment User Guide: Custom Fitment

The Custom Fitment feature allows you to create Year/Make/Model (YMM) integration for your own website or store.

• Best For: Sellers in regions outside the USA/Canada or those selling unique parts not found in standard catalogs.
• Important Note: Fitment data added through this specific tool cannot be submitted to marketplaces like eBay, Amazon, or Walmart. It is exclusively for your internal use and your own website's search function.

Part 1: Adding Master Vehicles (The "Vehicle" Tab)

Before you can attach fitment to parts, you must define which vehicles exist in your database. This is done in the Vehicle tab.

1. Navigate: Go to More Features > Custom Fitment

    

2. Select Tab: Click on the Vehicle tab (next to "Upload/Export Fitment").

3. Download Template: Click Download Excel Template.
4. Fill Data: Open the Excel file and input your vehicle data.
   • Mandatory Fields: Year, Make, Model.
   • Optional: You can add up to 3 additional attributes (e.g., Submodel, Engine, etc.).
   • Action Column: Enter A to add new vehicles.

5. Upload: Save the file and upload it back in the "Vehicle" tab.

Result: These vehicles are now stored as "Master Data" in your account. They will now appear in dropdown menus across the site.

   • Use the Action column to tell the system what to do:
     • A: Add new data.
     • U: Update existing data.
     • D: Delete data.
   • Save and re-upload the file to apply the changes.
