Edit the fitments on a part
How to review, remove and note a part's vehicle compatibility, undo with Reset to Original, and push the tidied list to eBay with Revise. There's no add-a-vehicle control — use FitX for more vehicles.
What editing a part's fitments does
GridX Connect works out a part's vehicle compatibility for you, so editing is about tidying the list, not building it. In the Vehicle Compatibility card you can remove vehicles you don't agree with, write a note against any row, and then push the tidied list to your eBay listing.
There is one thing editing does not do: you cannot add a vehicle by hand. The editor only removes rows and adds notes — there is no add-a-row or add-vehicle control anywhere on the card. If a part is missing vehicles it should carry, the tool for adding compatibility is FitX, which uses AI extraction to find and attach vehicles. The manual editor can only work with the vehicles GridX Connect already proposed.
Saving your changes updates the part, not the live listing. To send the new compatibility to eBay, you Revise the listing afterwards.
> [!WARNING] > There is no add-a-vehicle button, by design. If a part needs more vehicles, don't search for one — use FitX. Editing on the part is limited to removing rows and writing notes.
Before you start
- Inventory edit rights (company admin or staff). Viewers don't see Edit Fitments.
- The part open in Inventory, scrolled to the Vehicle Compatibility card.
- The part's main edit mode switched off — Edit Fitments is hidden while you're editing the rest of the part.
- If you sell on two or more eBay marketplaces, decide whether you're editing the US or UK list, because they're separate.
Steps
- Open the part in Inventory and scroll to the Vehicle Compatibility card.
- If you sell on two or more marketplaces, pick US or UK at the top of the detail tray. The card re-scopes to that marketplace's list.
- Click Edit Fitments (top right of the card). The list unlocks for editing.
- Remove any vehicle you don't agree with using the red trash icon on its row. The last row can't be removed — the icon greys out with the tooltip "At least one fitment must remain".
- Add a note to a row in its Notes box ("Add note...", up to 500 characters). Typing past the cap stops with no warning.
- To put the same note on every row, type into "Enter note to apply to all fitments..." and click Apply to All; to wipe every note, click Clear All Notes. See the control table for exactly what each does.
- Click Save Fitments. You'll see "Fitments saved" and an amber Edited pill appears on the card.
- Revise the listing to send the new compatibility to eBay — saving alone doesn't change the live listing.
The controls, and what each one does
| Control | Where | What it does | |---|---|---| | Edit Fitments | Card, top right | Unlocks the list for the marketplace you're on. Hidden while the part's main edit mode is on. | | Trash (red) | Each row | Removes that vehicle from the on-screen list. Greys out on the last row ("At least one fitment must remain"). | | Notes box | Notes column, each row | Free text against one vehicle, up to 500 characters. Keystrokes past the cap stop with no warning. | | Apply to All | Bar under the header | Replaces the note on every row with what you typed — it does not add to existing notes, and it doesn't ask you to confirm. Does nothing if the box is empty. | | Clear All Notes | Bar under the header | Blanks the note on every row at once. No confirmation. | | Save Fitments | Card, top right | Keeps your changes. Nothing is saved until you press it; shows "Saving..." while it works. | | Reset to Original | Card, top right | Rebuilds the proposed list. Appears only after this marketplace's list has been saved as edited. Asks "Reset fitments?" first. | | Cancel | Card, top right | Drops every unsaved change — with no warning prompt. | | US / UK tabs | Top of the detail tray | Two or more marketplaces only. Switches which marketplace's list you're editing. |
Undoing your changes
There are two ways back, depending on whether you've saved.
- Before you save, click Cancel. It drops every change you've made in this edit session — with no confirmation, so use it deliberately.
- After you save, open Edit Fitments again and click Reset to Original. It asks "Reset fitments?" and warns "Your edits will be discarded and replaced with the AI-generated originals." Choose Reset to rebuild the proposed list; you'll then see "Fitments reset to originals". Reset to Original only appears once this marketplace's list has been saved as edited — for changes you haven't saved yet, use Cancel.
Editing US and UK separately
A part's US and UK compatibility are separate lists, so the marketplace tab you're on decides which one you're editing. Switching tabs mid-edit with unsaved work brings up "Discard unsaved changes?" — "You have unsaved [marketplace] fitment edits. Switching marketplaces will discard them." — with a Discard & switch button. Save first if you want to keep the work.
Saving a marketplace's list flags only that marketplace's listing as needing revision. After a save the card returns to the eBay US view, so if you were editing UK, switch back to the UK tab to carry on there.
Pushing your changes to eBay
Saving updates the part in GridX Connect; it doesn't touch the live listing. The listing is flagged as needing revision instead, and you send the change up by running Revise on it — from the part, or in bulk by selecting items in Inventory and choosing Revise from the bulk-actions bar. Until you Revise, buyers still see the old compatibility. If a Revise is rejected, read the reason shown on the item's Failed status, fix what it points to, and run Revise again — there's no separate retry action.
If something goes wrong
- The trash icon is greyed out. You're down to the last row, and its tooltip reads "At least one fitment must remain". A part has to keep at least one vehicle. To take the compatibility off entirely, end or edit the listing on eBay.
- You tried to save with no rows left and saw "At least one fitment must remain". Keep at least one vehicle on the list, then save.
- The list won't load — "Failed to load fitments". Close and reopen the part, then try Edit Fitments again.
- The save didn't take — "Save failed". Check your connection and press Save Fitments again.
- You saved, but eBay hasn't changed. Saving only updates the part. Revise the listing to push the new compatibility to eBay.
- The UK tab says "Not listed on eBay UK yet." The message reads "Publish this item to eBay UK to generate and view its K-Type fitments." Publish the part to eBay UK first; its UK list is generated then, and you can edit it after.
- You need vehicles that aren't on the list. The editor can't add them — use FitX to find and attach more vehicles, or note the difference in the Notes column.
