Search Auto Parts by OEM Number
Searching by number is the only reliable way to guarantee fitment. "Brake pads for a Nexia" returns dozens of results; `96800089` returns exactly one part.

Why a number beats a model name
One model name can cover several different cars: Nexia, Nexia 2 and Nexia 3 are three vehicles, and many of their parts are not interchangeable. Facelifts add to this: the exterior is unchanged, the part is not.
The catalogue number (OEM number) removes the confusion entirely: it is the identifier the manufacturer assigned to that specific part, and it is the same worldwide.
Where to find the number
Full guide: Checking part fitment.
- On the old part itself — almost every factory part has the number stamped or cast into it. On a filter, on the body; on a brake pad, on the back of the plate; on electrical parts, on a sticker.
- From the VIN — the 17-character body number. It shows exactly which configuration left the factory. In the vehicle documents, in the corner of the windscreen, or on the driver door pillar.
- Ask the shop — photograph the old part and send it in chat. The shop will read the number.
Two different numbers — do not mix them up
The TezDetal catalogue stores both and searches by both. So enter whichever number you have.
On the product page they are listed separately — so you do not confuse which one is yours.
- OEM number
- Assigned by the factory. Identical worldwide, understood in any shop.
- Part number (article)
- The shop's own internal code. Meaningful only in that shop.
How to search
- Enter the number without spaces or dashes: not `96 800 089` but `96800089`.
- If nothing comes up, look at aftermarket equivalents: another manufacturer may make a part for that OEM number. This is noted in the product description.
- If still nothing, browse by category and send the number to the shop in chat. A part missing from the catalogue may still be on the shop shelf.

Frequently asked questions
- What is an OEM number?
- A catalogue number is the identifier the manufacturer assigned to that specific part. It is more precise than model name or year, because parts can differ within a single model.
- Where do I find the OEM number?
- The easiest route is to read it off the old part — it is stamped or cast into the body. Failing that it can be derived from the VIN, or you can photograph the part and send it to a shop.
- How does a part number differ from an OEM number?
- An OEM number is set by the factory and identical worldwide. A shop's part number is an internal code meaningful only there. TezDetal searches by both.
- What if the number returns no results?
- It means no part with that number is currently in the catalogue. Look at an aftermarket equivalent, or send the number to a shop in chat — what is not listed may still be in stock.
- Is there a VIN search?
- Catalogue search works by OEM number and part number. The OEM number has to be derived from the VIN first — a shop can do that if you send them the VIN.
