**Category:** Automotive | **Website:** [car-part.com/](https://car-part.com/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/22758209-dae5-4769-b0ea-0c1e493e0500/car-part-com-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/22758209-dae5-4769-b0ea-0c1e493e0500/car-part-com-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/car-part/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get part detail

Retrieve full details for a specific part using the quote_url returned by search_parts. Returns part metadata including year, make/model, stock number, quoted price, mileage, description, interchange info, and dealer/yard name. The quote_url encodes all identifying information for the part listing.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `quote_url` | string | Yes | The quote_url value from search_parts results[*].quote_url. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/car-part/get-part-detail \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"quote_url":"<string>"}'
```

### Get search metadata

Retrieve the search form options from car-part.com: available vehicle years, make/model combinations, part types, and geographic location filters. Returns arrays of string values that serve as valid inputs to search_parts. Each array's first element is a placeholder label (e.g. 'Select Year').

**Estimated cost:** Metered

_No parameters required._

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/car-part/get-search-metadata \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{}'
```

### Search parts

Search for recycled car parts by vehicle year, make/model, part type, and ZIP code. Returns paginated results with part details including pricing, condition grade, mileage, dealer contact info, and a quote_url for drilling into full part details. Values for year, model, and part should come from get_search_metadata. Results are ordered by distance from the given ZIP code.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `location` | string | No | Geographic location filter from get_search_metadata locations list. |
| `model` | string | Yes | Car make/model from get_search_metadata models list (e.g. 'Honda Accord'). |
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for pagination. |
| `part` | string | Yes | Part type from get_search_metadata parts list (e.g. 'Engine'). |
| `year` | string | Yes | Vehicle manufacturing year from get_search_metadata years list (e.g. '2020'). |
| `zip` | string | Yes | ZIP or postal code for proximity search (e.g. '48201'). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/car-part/search-parts \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"location":"<string>","model":"<string>","page":"<integer>","part":"<string>","year":"<string>","zip":"<string>"}'
```
