GRAND BLANC, Mich. – For the first time ever, independent repair shops can purchase GM OE wiring harnesses for millions of late-model Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles directly from ACDelco distributors, the company announced.

The tail-lamp and headlamp harnesses cover 377 different product applications for millions of cars, crossovers and trucks.

“ACDelco is the true GM original-equipment replacement-parts brand, and our goal is to make it easy for shop owners and technicians to do high-quality repairs as quickly and efficiently as possible,” ACDelco General Director of Product Development David Mestdagh said. “That’s why we are consistently increasing the number of parts available directly from ACDelco to the aftermarket and why we continue to invest in all aspects of our business, from order to delivery.”

While some aftermarket parts can create fitment issues, ACDelco GM OE harnesses are designed by GM engineers to exact vehicle specifications, providing a perfect fit. This allows for more efficient repairs on GM vehicles, helping to significantly reduce repair times, according to ACDelco.

ACDelco GM OE harnesses also provide better protection than competitors against issues such as water wicking and road debris, according to the company. Harnesses not designed to exact vehicle applications could be more susceptible to these types of problems.

The introduction of wiring harnesses marks another expansion of ACDelco’s aftermarket product portfolio. This year, ACDelco has introduced 1,264 new OE part numbers. Previously only available to dealers, the products include engine strut mounts, pinion gear seals and fuel-pump sensors, among others.
