Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s original starter configuration before ordering, especially on 1999-2000 applications that specify equal length mounting bolts and 2003 optional 1.5 kW listings. Confirm the OE-style part number, pinion tooth count, rotation direction, and nose cone type against the removed unit to ensure proper match. For best results, inspect battery condition, cable connections, and charging system output during installation.
