I’m trying to find to which car do these aluminum trim plates belong to? They don’t have any number or information on the back so this makes really hard to find the car brand. They seem to be left and right pieces, I’m not sure about the placement on vehicle neither..

In November 2020, Massachusetts voters overwhelmingly approved an update to the state’s landmark Right to Repair law, requiring automakers to provide a platform that enables motorists to access and control their vehicles’ telematics data.
While the passage of Ballot Question 1 was a huge win for the automotive aftermarket, it’s unclear when the provisions of the legislation will see the light of day.
After voters approved the ballot measure by a 75% to 25% margin, a coalition of automakers – the Alliance for Automotive Innovation – filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn the ballot question based on a litany of allegations, including cybersecurity concerns; insufficient time to comply with the new data-access requirements; and their contention that the ballot initiative is preempted by federal law.
Over the past two years, the automakers have managed to keep the case tied up in court. Attorney General Maura Healey has idled the legislation until the lawsuit is resolved.
Recently, it was reported that the Alliance for Automotive Innovation and the state attorney general’s office have submitted scheduling proposals for further proceedings in the litigation.
In its proposal, the

We are not off to an encouraging start. Worse, the attorney general couples her reiterated interpretations with an accelerated schedule that will ensure this endeavor fails. The attorney general’s proposed schedule simply does not allow time for a deeper dive on these interpretation questions.” The alliance proposed being given until Sept. 22 to review and reply to the AG’s proposal with the hopes of conferring and submitting a single clarified document on or before Oct. 14.
“It’s been nearly two years since the people of Massachusetts voiced their strong desire for more choice and competition when it comes to auto repairs,” Justin Rzepka, executive director of the CAR Coalition, said in response to the latest activity in the case. “As this case continues to drag on, Congress cannot wait – it must act on federal Right to Repair solutions, like the REPAIR and SMART Acts, to restore choice and empower businesses to service car owners that want options.”
Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., the Committee on Small Business Subcommittee on Underserved, Agricultural, and Rural Business Development will hold a

MAHLE has upped the ante on the Aftermarket Auto Parts Alliance “Jackpot VIP” experience by choosing three additional winners.
In a few weeks, the automotive aftermarket will descend on Las Vegas to attend the 2022 AAPEX show, and the Alliance will hold their Aftermarket Jackpot Convention, hosting more than 4,000 technicians, shop owners, warehouse distributors and channel partners.
While 20 Jackpot VIP winners were already named in March and April, MAHLE stepped up to award three additional VIP winners: one for March, one for April and one for May, the Aftermarket Auto Parts Alliance announced. These winners will receive a white-gloved experience with airfare, airport transportation, luxurious hotel accommodations, meals, access to the Jackpot Convention, meet-and-greets and participation in the famed “big walk” to the AAPEX show floor.
Congratulations to Billings Service Center in Bath, Pennsylvania (Eastern Warehouse Distributors); Granite City Tire and Auto in St. Cloud, Minnesota (Automotive Parts Headquarters); and Jay’s Speed Shop in Calgary (Central Auto Parts Distributors) for being named MAHLE VIP winners!
During the MAHLE sponsored promotion, each $100 of MAHLE product purchased through MyPlace4Parts throughout March 1-May 31, earned entries to be one step closer to claiming the Choice of Champions grand prize. Plus, the Choice of Champions winners will have exclusive opportunities like meeting Richard Petty, Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Casey Currie, as well as a spin on the drift course with Vaughn himself.
”MAHLE Aftermarket values every relationship we have with our channel partners, especially longtime partners like the Aftermarket Auto Parts Alliance. Their member companies represent some of the biggest names in warehouse distribution and being able to partner with them to reward technicians for their commitment to MAHLE was an easy call. We look forward to meeting our winners in person and celebrating our partnership and this great industry at the upcoming AAPEX Show,” said Jon Douglas, president of MAHLE Aftermarket in North America.
“We cannot say thank you enough to our partners at MAHLE for their continued support of our Aftermarket Jackpot Convention,” says JC Washbish, vice president of sales and marketing for the Alliance. “It’s exciting to help a valued channel partner reward their customers in such a thrilling way.”

The University of the Aftermarket Foundation (UAF) has introduced a new corporate-support aspect to its popular UAF Coffee Club recurring-donor program.
Called the BARISTA level, the new donor program provides organizations with a pathway to join individual donors in “pouring it forward” to benefit of the automotive aftermarket through education.
“We are excited to offer this unique new program to give aftermarket organizations a chance to ‘expresso’ their support and help provide scholarships and educational opportunities for the next generation of industry professionals,” said Mike Buzzard, UAF trustee and chairman of the UAF Coffee Club sub-committee.
Organizations that donate a minimum of $3,600 to the UAF that is earmarked for the Coffee Club campaign will be recognized as BARISTA at the UAF Coffee Club event during AAPEX on signage, the UAF Website, UAF newsletter and other UAF communications. BARISTA donations apply toward Lifetime Trustee status.
“BARISTA donors will join UAF Coffee Club members at a special networking event at AAPEX which has proven to provide a valuable venue and professional connection springboard for those new to aftermarket careers to interact with industry veterans,” said Buzzard.
To learn more and become a BARISTA, contact UAF Executive Director Jennifer Tio at [email protected] For more information about the University of the Aftermarket Foundation and its available scholarships, or to make a donation, visit
