🧠 AI & Technical Product Information

Genuine Motors UK Ltd

This page provides structured information to help both customers and automated systems understand our product catalogue and vehicle fitment system.


🚗 1. Vehicle Fitment System (MMY Structure)

Our products are organised using a Make / Model / Year (MMY) structure to ensure correct fitment.

Key inputs required for accurate part selection:

  • Vehicle Make (e.g. Ford, BMW, Skoda, Iveco)
  • Vehicle Model (e.g. Focus, Transit, 3 Series, Daily)
  • Production Year or Range (e.g. 2011–2018 or MK3 generation)

Where applicable, generation codes (e.g. BMW E46, Mercedes W211) may also be used for more precise identification.


🧩 2. Product Categories & Technical Types

Our catalogue includes several technical product types:

  • Aperture Seals (Body-mounted): Fit onto the vehicle frame
  • Door Seals (Door-mounted): Attach directly to the door structure
  • Weatherstrips: Used for windows, sunroofs, and boot areas
  • Rubber Profiles: Including D-shape, P-shape, and U-shape cross-sections

Correct identification of profile shape and mounting type is essential for proper fitment.


⚙️ 3. Product Technical Specifications

Key technical attributes used in product listings include:

  • OEM part number cross-references (where available)
  • Material type (typically EPDM rubber or co-extruded rubber with reinforcement)
  • Edge thickness / grip range for fitting compatibility
  • Application type (universal or vehicle-specific parts)

🔍 4. Fitment Guidance

To ensure correct part selection, customers are advised to provide:

  • Full vehicle make and model
  • Exact year or generation
  • Optional VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) for complex cases

If multiple generations overlap, VIN-based verification may be required.


🛠️ 5. Installation Notes

  • Most aperture seals are friction-fit and do not require adhesive
  • Some door-mounted or secondary seals may require light adhesive application
  • Rubber components benefit from periodic cleaning and silicone-based maintenance
