If all else fails a trip to each car dealer will find the info on the window sticker. Thank You, Randy Remove 333 from email address to reply. |

It's going to be tough, because the parts for one alternator on one make of GM car, as of six years ago, contained several parts that were sourced from three different countries -- Germany, China, and the US. And that was in one production batch. -- Ed Huntress |
