Navigation Shortcuts

However, the best way to find what you are looking for is to utilize the powerful eBay search engine and some tips are listed as follows.  Before searching, please also be familiar with some eBay Motors jargon, right Keywords, and conventions due to limited title length allowed .

• Year: Usually two-digit.  For example, 00 represents 2000 and 01 is for 2001.
• Make: Usually not specified
• Model: used a lot in every listing so it is crucial to include the right model name.  Usually sub model number, e.g. EX, LX and so on, can be excluded as most of the time the parts are the same for the same model.  Please also note that for some model name, e.g. F150, there is no space in between the letter and number.
• Body Style: 
  • 2 Door or coupe: usually abbreviated as 2d or 2dr
  • 4 Door or sedan: abbreviated as 4d or 4dr
  • 3 door or hatchback: usually as 3d or hatch
• Part Name:
  • For headlights, use headlights or headlight instead of head lights, headlamps or head lamps
  • For tail lights, use tail or tail lights instead of taillamps or tail lamps
  • For signal or blinkers, use corner or corner lights
  • For park or parking lights, use bumper or corner depending on where they are equipped.
  • For side markers, the keyword is marker or corner
  • For grill, use grill or grille
• Special features: 
  • For Angel eyes or halo rims, use halo
  • For projector headlights, use projector

Some examples listed below

•  For example, if you are looking for a tail lights for 99 civic, the search phrase you need would be 99 civic tail.
• If you are looking for lights for a 99 civic and a accord coupe, then the search phrase would be 99 (civic,accord) -(4d,4dr,sedan).  The first set of parentheses stands for either...Or...  The second set with a minus sign immediately before it tells the search engine to leave out those listings with the keywords specified in the parentheses from the search result.  You could've use (2d,2dr,coupe) instead of -(4d,4dr,sedan) but to search by elimination or negation always gives you more results and more accurate.  By the way, there is no space after each delimiting comma.
• Due to limited space allowed for us to set the title for each listing, we cannot always include all keywords in the title; therefore, to maximize the chance to locate all possible listings, you can also check the option to search in titles & descriptions.
