FOND DU LAC, Wis. — Hundreds of new original equipment-quality sensors, switches and other components have been added to the Wells Vehicle Electronics product line, extending the company’s innovative solutions to more than 375 million additional domestic and foreign nameplate vehicles.

Wells also introduced 33 new OE-quality emissions, ignition and fuel injection parts that together cover nearly 20 million registered vehicles.

“Being first to market in the vehicle electronics category is an important competitive advantage not only for Wells, but also for the distributors and service providers who sell and install our products,” said John Zochert, director of marketing and product management for Wells. “Our channel partners can’t afford to lose a sale to the OE dealer because that customer might never come back.

“Our engineering and product management teams have done an outstanding job of making sure the right, OE-quality part is available for virtually any vehicle that has entered the aftermarket replacement cycle.”

Wells’ complete line of components is featured in the company’s convenient, user-friendly electronic catalog available at www.WellsVE.com.
