DIY Auto Parts Cataloging

While it seems like just yesterday, I have been working here for 15 years now. The auto parts industry has changed light years in that time. In fact most industries have, but let me speak of the one I know. When I began here at Johnson Industries (Parent Company to Rightnowautoparts) most of the parts industry was still using paper catalogs to look up parts. What that took was an expert that knew where each manufacturers catalog was in the rack, and then where that company indexed the particular part needed. It seemed almost cruel the way every company called similar parts by different names, cataloged them in different parts of the book, used different columnar layouts and even included unique quirks such as Air Conditioning O-rings needed to be looked up in the Gasket catalog, etc..

Computers have changed most of these things. Not only have manufacturers needed to move their data to electronic catalogs, but they have learned it is in their best interest to synchronize their part categories and names for ease of look up. We are moving towards a standardized format that will make it much easier to look up auto parts.

Unfortunately we are not at our final destination yet. Because of the aforementioned "quirks" many times it can be very tricky to look up these parts. For example, did you know that many manufacturers of window lift motors have them designed so that the left front motor will also work on the right rear because of a mirror image setup? So what happens if you say you want a window lift motor for the left side on your car? You also need to enter front or back, but may not be asked, and you will get the wrong part unless you "know" of the issue. To compound this issue there are also mistakes made inputting the application data and an incorrect listing may persist until the next monthly update. If everyone was updating their own data it would be repaired quicker, but when compiling the auto parts info from many manufacturers it doesn't make sense to update every time one makes a change.

So where does that leave you, the online auto parts purchaser? The new, powerful, auto parts catalogs are great. They are easy to use, accurate for the most part, and empower the public to walk through a do-it-yourself project of auto repair while saving big money on the auto parts side. There are however those situations where some little known piece of data may cause an error and the wrong car part gets sent. In that case, please work with us by calling 1-888-921-9154 and let one of our parts experts walk through the data with you to get the right part. Most of them have been doing just that for many, many years, and will be more than happy to help you out (for free). Mistakes may happen but we will do everything we can to make it right for you.

GM Module

The Auto parts industry is anything but small. It is a multibillion dollar industry that involves hundreds of manufacturers, suppliers and retailers. Even with the recent decline in the global financial market, the need for cars and car parts has hardly waned. Thousands of cars and auto parts are still being bought every week by people who wish to improve the performance of their vehicles or merely wish to replace worn out parts. If you own a car or plan on owning one soon, it is crucial that you understand how to go about buying the parts for your car correctly.

The alternative is hardly attractive. Remaining ignorant about how to get the best deals for your car parts will leave you potentially exposed to buying inferior car parts at outrageous amounts. Hundreds of people are constantly duped this way every day and have had to suffer low performance results from their mistakes. Getting reliable parts is the only way of preventing this. Don’t buy a random module for your GM. Installing a first rate GM module is the better choice. It goes without saying that the web offers the most convenient way of buying the auto parts that you need for your car. Instead of visiting your local hardware stores and searching through the different parts on display, you can easily search for the same parts online with the use of tools available on the web. For instance, typing in the keywords ‘GM module’ into any search engine will reveal dozens of potential suppliers that you can contact. You can then work with these results in finding a supplier that meets your need.

When checking for the right GM module, your focus will need to be on the credibility of the supplier, the quality of the auto part and the offered cost. Be sure to take into consideration details such as the cost of delivery. It is not uncommon for some vendors to offer really attractive discounts which they later offset with their delivery rates. Most auto part vendors also offer advanced search features within their site that you can use in navigating through the different products that they have available in stock. You’ll therefore be able to find the right Gm module for your car by basing your search on the brand, parts description, parts number or the car in question. However in order for you to benefit from such options you will need to search with the right auto parts company.

What Kind of Air Filter do I Need?

One of the first things you learn when you begin working in the auto parts industry is that nothing is simple. The next thing you learn is that anyone who is asking your help in looking up auto parts will automatically assume it is simple and get upset with you when you ask several questions to get them the right part.

Automotive engineers seem to be an especially sadistic sort that loves to create options, changes, and supercessions with the express intention of making auto parts hard to look up correctly. Add to that the multitude of people who modify cars from stock and then don't tell the new owner of the changes, and it looks like our parts experts are less than trained.

All that being said, what I would like to ask from our customers is a little patience for the sometimes seemingly redundant questions asked when looking up a part. We have found that it is much better to ask the questions up front to make sure you get the right part, than to just send what is normally used in that application. It saves frustration and time and money with returns and extra orders. The catalog we have online is a good one, but a small percentage of the time the questions get confusing. Our parts experts have access to many more online and paper catalogs and their experience truly helps. If there is ANY question about which auto parts you nedd, please call ... we will be more than happy to help !!

AC Delco Parts at Low Prices Online

AC Delco Parts is owned by General Motors as a fully independently ran subsidiary consisting of AC Spark Plug and United Delco divisions. General Motors was founded in 1908 by William Durant as a holding company for Buick with plans to acquire other automobile manufacturers of the time. William Durant has been successful as a carriage manufacturer prior to automobiles using similar business tactics, which included creating a separate division for provide the components and raw materials needed to the carriage company. This allowed for the carriage company to always have materials and components available even when competitors faced shortages or increased prices.

In 1908, William Durant along with Albert Champion created the AC Spark Plug Division owned by General Motors as part of Durant’s business philosophy to provide materials and equipment to Buick at affordable costs. General Motors began to grow quickly and was able to obtain Oldsmobile before the end of 1908 and Cadillac, and the divisions which would become known as Pontiac and GMC Trucks in 1909. William Durant lost controlling interest in GM in 1910 and went off to found Chevrolet with Louis Chevrolet in 1911. AC Delco parts were not available, yet but the creation of Durant’s vision would be forthcoming shortly.

With the success of the Chevrolet brand of automobiles, Durant was able to resume control of General Motors in 1916 adding Chevrolet to the General Motors lines of automobiles. It was during this time that Durant also created the United Motors Corporation from profits earned from Chevrolet. United Motors Corporation consisted of individual companies, each providing different parts, materials and components for use in manufacturing automobiles. United Motors was not owned by GM and could offer AC Delco parts to any automobile manufacturer.

General Motors remedied this situation by purchasing United Motors for $45 million in 1918 and making it a wholly owned subsidiary. Now GM had two divisions which could provide the majority of parts for all of its line of automotive products as well as replacement parts exclusively for GM models. The Delco name was born from the Dayton Engineering Laboratories Company which was part of the original United Motors Corporation. The Delco name had gained so much popularity with consumers that in 1971 GM renamed the division United Delco. Consumers were able to obtain AC and Delco parts for the GM brand automobiles.

Due to economic conditions and in efforts to cut expenses, combine operations and provide better marketing of products, General Motors combined the AC and Delco parts divisions in 1974. This strategy better aligned the two divisions by merging them together since consumers were already obtaining parts from each division and now could do so with having to place only one order instead of two separate parts orders.

AC Delco parts are available still today from Rightnowautoparts.com, at reasonable prices. The company also offers free shipping on orders over $75 and same day shipping. For more information, assistance or to place an order, call 888-921-9154.

Mopar Muscle Cars

It's Friday at Rightnowautoparts.com and we are celebrating ultra casual shorts, flip flops and hats day. Somehow that attire just breeds laziness... So, here is a picture of a cool car. That may be all for today. Have a great weekend!!

Rightnowautoparts.com

There is a Synergy There...

Somehow there seems to be a relationship between cars and watches. Beyond the fact that I am a real fan of both, it just seems that the entire category of each has a correlative to the other. If you just want a functional (Car/Watch) their are brands that specialize in that. If you feel that a (Car/Watch) is a prestige item, someone is willing to allow you to fork over tons of dollars to appease your desire.

Then there is the purely aesthetic feel of a beautiful work of art that is highly complex and functions flawlessly. If you feel I am reaching a bit on this one, check out this website; carsandwatches.com. Here is an article from roadandtrack.com on the same subject... and here is another from askmen.com referencing watches specifically designed as tribute to a particular classic car.

Finally, it just seems that both cars and watches have the ability to bond with a mans spirit and personify those attributes he desires to highlight. We may not all agree with the combination, but there is no disputing that men find confidence in the strangest places sometimes (and I am speaking of myself here). Check with any mans significant other and see if that is not true...

How Much Do You Love GM?

At Rightnowautoparts.com we are an authorized ACDelco parts wholesale warehouse distributor. What that means is that we buy GM parts directly from the GM parts warehouses and stock them in our regional auto parts warehouses. The line between which GM parts are designated ACDelco parts and which GM parts that can only be sold directly to the GM dealerships changes monthly, but the percentages stay around 30% ACDelco parts to 70% GM parts.

The reason we have the contract with GM ACDelco is to make sure the faster moving ACDelco parts are closer to the GM dealerships and mechanics shops that are working on a customers car "today". If your car is up on a rack and needs tune up parts, it is quicker to get them on our ACDelco parts delivery trucks locally than it is to order them from the GM parts warehouse. Since ACDelco parts are the fastest moving/selling items, it just makes sense to try to stock them in a parts warehouse in the same local region.

Since a high percentage of our sales do involve ACDelco parts, we love GM. Our paychecks are highly reflective of how many of their GM parts we can move each day. Heck, I probably own 15 different ACDelco Parts baseball caps, and wear them at least weekly if not daily. But as much as I love GM, I do not believe I would have a Chevy Bow Tie logo tattooed to the back of my bald head. I guess that is just me. I am not a fan of tattoos in general, and really don't think I would ever allow myself to be permanently "branded" like that. GM parts are great... GM tattoos, not so much.

P.S. Do you like that double meaning on "branded" I used there... pretty slick, huh?

Car Posters From Our Youth

Whenever I highlight posts from other sites like this one from Jalopnik.com I typically need to decide which image to choose for my lead in. A lot of times it may be the actual photo from the article. Sometimes I will use Google to try to grab another one that better describes my angle on the link, and other times (like this one) the story comes with a gallery to choose from.

I just had to laugh at today's selection because I immediately knew the car and the models, and I seriously doubt my children have heard of either of them. Although Hall and Oates have produced a CD within the most recent decade, it was really just to placate those older fans like myself that were looking to add some current flavor to our collection but still love the old throwbacks (can I hear a Steely Dan out there?).

Anyway, the Fiero was one of the most quirky vehicles ever produced by the now defunct GM subsidiary Pontiac. Plastic body panels, 12 foot long radiator hoses and "My insurance is gonna cost WHAT?" are some of the things I remember. There is probably an active Fiero fan club out there even now. What finally killed them was the Pintoesque attribute of bursting into flames (not a good selling point).
