01

Orders & Compatibility

Choosing the correct part for your vehicle

Can you check whether a part fits my vehicle?

Yes. Send us the full VIN, the current OEM part number if available, and clear photos of the existing part. We will help review compatibility, but final confirmation may still require a dealership or qualified technician.

What information should I send before ordering?

Please provide the 17-character VIN, vehicle model and production year, current part number, and photos of the part, connectors and labels whenever possible.

Can you identify a part using only the VIN?

The VIN is very useful, but it may not always be sufficient because vehicles can have different equipment, software, wiring or retrofits. A current part number and photos usually allow a more accurate check.

Are all products physically in stock?

Yes. Products shown as available are stored in our European Union warehouse and are ready for dispatch unless the listing clearly states otherwise.

Can I reserve an item?

Items are normally sold on a first-paid, first-served basis. Contact us before ordering if you need a short reservation or a custom payment arrangement.

02

Products

Condition, originality and included components

Are your parts genuine OEM?

Yes. VilasParts focuses on genuine original equipment manufacturer parts for Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche and other premium vehicles.

Are the photos of the actual item?

Yes, unless the listing expressly states otherwise. We use individual photos so you can review the actual condition before purchasing.

Do used parts show signs of wear?

Used parts may have normal cosmetic signs of previous use, storage or handling. Please review all photos carefully because they form an important part of the product description.

Is everything shown in the photos included?

Only the components shown in the photos or expressly listed in the product description are included. Decorative backgrounds, tools or unrelated objects are not included.

Do electronic modules require coding?

Many electronic modules, steering-wheel components and safety-related parts may require coding, calibration, adaptation or component-protection removal. Installation should be performed by a qualified professional.

03

Shipping & Delivery

Dispatch, tracking and delivery information

When will my order be dispatched?

Orders are normally prepared and dispatched on the same or next business day after payment has been confirmed.

Which shipping companies do you use?

Depending on destination and service, we use FedEx Priority, FedEx Economy and Lithuanian Post.

Will I receive tracking information?

Yes. Tracking information is provided after dispatch for every shipment.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, we ship to most countries worldwide. Certain destinations or products may be restricted by carrier or local regulations.

What should I do if my parcel is delayed?

Check the tracking information first. If there is no update for an unusual period, contact us with your order number and we will assist with the carrier enquiry.

What happens if I provide an incorrect address?

Contact us immediately. If the order has not yet been dispatched, we may be able to correct it. Additional charges caused by an incorrect address or failed delivery may be charged where applicable.

04

Customs & Duties

Import charges for international orders

Do customers within the European Union pay import duties?

No. Orders delivered within the European Union are shipped from our EU warehouse and are not subject to import customs duties at delivery.

Will I pay import duties outside the EU?

Possibly. Import duties, taxes and customs charges depend on the destination country and are normally the buyer’s responsibility unless DDP shipping has been agreed.

What is DDP shipping?

Delivered Duty Paid means applicable import duties and taxes are paid in advance so the customer should not receive additional import charges at delivery.

How can I request DDP shipping?

Contact us before purchasing. Availability and pricing must be confirmed for the destination and specific order.

05

Returns & Refunds

How to return an eligible order

Can I return an item?

Eligible consumer purchases may be returned within 14 days of delivery. Please contact us before sending the item back and follow the return instructions provided.

Who pays for return shipping?

For a change of mind or an unsuitable part ordered by the buyer, return shipping is normally paid by the buyer. For a confirmed incorrect or defective item, we will arrange an appropriate solution as required.

What condition must the returned item be in?

The item should be returned in the same condition in which it was received, securely packed, with all supplied components and identification markings intact.

How long does a refund take?

Approved refunds are processed after the returned item has been received and inspected. Bank or payment-provider processing times may vary.

What if I receive a damaged or incorrect item?

Contact us promptly and send the order number, packaging photos and clear photos of the item. Do not install, modify or return it before receiving instructions.

06

Payments

Available and secure payment options

Which payment methods do you accept?

Available methods may include PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and bank transfer. The exact options are shown at checkout.

Is payment secure?

Yes. Payments are processed using trusted payment providers. VilasParts does not store complete payment-card details.

Can I pay by bank transfer?

Yes, where the bank-transfer option is available. The order is dispatched only after payment has been received and confirmed.
