I saw a video today where a tech mentioned the name of the software dealers use to enter a VIN and pull up everything about the vehicle; essentially the BOM. This whole situation reeks of scam - why would that be paid software? Why wouldn't the manufacturers put this on their websites directly? The whole vehicle sales channel needs a federal legal overhaul, about 170 degrees in direction change...

Does anyone know of a way to go from my VIN to a total list of all the correct OEM parts for my vehicle, online?

The dealers trying to control this is protectionism and should be illegal (think MLS, credit scores, and so on)...
