Re: How do we get the exact part number of a windshield when using a VIN #?

What software do you use that cross references the dealer number with nags #?

E direct has available companion software to assist in decoding VINS. I am being told it is about 85% accurate. Typically we call the dealers now, and they are about 95% accurate.

And when you are calling the dealership, a typical shop spends 30 hours per month to complete this task. In addition, you have to get the VIN from the customer which is a problem in itself; however, with SwiftVIN by eDG, all you have to get is the license plate number.

Gary, we have used Quest for almost 20 yrs and do not want to switch, can we install/purchase EDG separately? Thx

Dave,

Your best bet is to join the IGA as you get these and other features of eDG included with your annual membership.

Re: How do we get the exact part number of a windshield when using a VIN #?

GlassMan

The current software that my company currently uses (Edirect) provides multiple windshields to choose from when we input the VIN #. Mitchell is the same. The auto dealers have software that provide the exact windshield (auto glass) part number. DO you have to be an auto dealer to get that software? HELP!
