Import Tips

Document historical vehicle compatibility to justify 6V classification, as modern regulators dominate this category

Require proof of cut-out relay integration via circuit diagrams during customs clearance

Avoid pitfall of classifying with 12V parts; voltage mismatch leads to duty recalculation and delays
