If you are unsure if a part is compatible with your vehicle, please provide us with your chassis number. This information will help us more accurately determine if the part is compatible with your vehicle.

At Auto Parts Box Japan, we are unable to confirm compatibility with genuine part numbers using a VIN number.
Please note that some vehicles may not have a chassis number, also known as a chassis frame number.
In such cases, we recommend contacting your local dealership with your VIN number to obtain the correct genuine part number.
