Import Tips
• Provide engineering drawings showing vehicle-specific dimensions to confirm classification under 8708.99.68.20 for heading 8704 compatibility
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'aftermarket' without proof; include invoices linking to OEM-equivalent specs for CBP review
• Test for balance and phasing per SAE J901 standards; non-compliant parts may face FDA-equivalent auto safety holds
