Terms of use and disclaimer

What this site is

Smog Legal Finder is an independent reference that reorganizes public Executive Orders (EOs) issued by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for aftermarket, performance and add-on parts. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by CARB, the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR), any other government agency or any parts maker. Product, brand and vehicle names belong to their owners and are shown only to identify products.

What a listing means

A row on this site means the part number and vehicle appear in the CARB EO shown. It is not our determination that a part is legal on your vehicle. The final determination is made by CARB and by the Smog Check station or Smog Check Referee. Match the model year, engine and remarks to your vehicle and keep the EO label and a copy of the EO.

Not advice

The information is for general reference. It is not legal advice and does not recommend any product. An EO says nothing about performance, fit, warranty, noise or safety.

Accuracy and limits of responsibility

We read vehicle tables from CARB's PDF files by program and leave out rows we cannot read with certainty, but mistakes are possible, and EOs can be amended, superseded or revoked after the date shown. Check the original EO PDF linked on every row before relying on it. To the extent permitted by law, the site is not liable for decisions made based on it.

Copyright

The EOs are public documents of the State of California; we summarize their facts and link the originals rather than republishing them. The site's design, text and compilation may not be copied wholesale without permission.

Corrections

If you spot an error, please tell us through the contact page. We will check it against the EO PDF and fix it.
