Shipping & Returns

How long before we ship?

99% of our Corvette and 1955-57 full-size Chevrolet wiring is in stock and ready to ship the same day of your order, or the following business day. Products for other vehicles are manufactured by our technicians for a specific year/make/model vehicle, and typically ship within 7-15 business days.  This time can be higher during our high-demand season. 

Back Orders

On occasion, due to high demand, we may be temporarily out of stock on a particular item. In the event that your order contains a non-stock or special order item, we will ship the items we have in stock, and ship the remainder of your order after the back ordered items have been manufactured (unless you inform us to ship your order complete).

Shipping Rates

Shipping rates will be calculated during checkout.  If you want to determine the shipping rate before placing your order you can do so.  Place the items in your cart, select the “View Full Cart” link under the “Checkout” drop-down on the top of the website, and enter your shipping destination and shipping method.

In addition, a 20% restock fee will be charged for returned packages that were unclaimed.

Need to ship to a different address?

Not a problem. We do not charge retail customers an additional fee to ship an order to an alternate address, within the contiguous USA. This is especially convenient for ordering items for a friend or having the parts shipped directly to your mechanic or restoration shop.

Return Policy

Subject to thorough inspection, items that have not been used, installed, or attempted to be installed may be returned within 90 days from the date of purchase (non-returnable products noted in catalog).

Unlike most companies that sell electrical items and have a “no return” policy, we feel that our 90 days return policy is very generous.

To return a product that was purchased directly from Lectric Limited, and not one of our dealers:

  1. Obtain an R.M.A. (Return Merchandise Authorization) number from us. Returns without an R.M.A. number will not be processed/accepted.  To obtain an R.M.A number, please call our Technical Department.
  2. Box your product. Returned items must be in new condition, not previously installed or attempted to be installed, and in the original packaging with nothing removed. Unused & un-installed items that are not wanted, incorrectly ordered, or unclaimed and returned to us, are subject to a 20% restock fee upon inspection. Shipping, handling, insurance, and customs duties/import feed are non-refundable. If you purchased an item through one of our dealers, please make all claims through that dealer.
  3. Include a copy of the original invoice (receipt).
  4. For products purchased directly from Lectric Limited (not one of our dealers), ship all returns to Lectric Limited at:  Lectric Limited, Inc., 6750 W 74th Street, Bedford Park, IL 60638 (USA), ATTN: RMA #_____
  5. Upon receipt of your return, verification of required documentation, and thorough inspection, a credit will be issued to the credit card number processed with the original order, minus the amount of the restocking fee. Shipping, handling, insurance, and duty fees are non-refundable.

NOTE: If you purchased your Lectric Limited product through one of our dealers, please contact that dealer for instruction on how to return your item to that dealer.

The customer is responsible for return shipping costs, duties on any returns or exchange fees, unless the fault was ours.  If the fault was ours, you can ask us for a shipping return label when you call us for the R.M.A. number.

Return Condition

  • All returns for a refund or exchange must not be used, fully/partially installed, altered, or damaged.  We thoroughly inspect all returns.
  • All returns for a refund or exchange must have all original tags attached to the item/part.
  • All returns for a refund or exchange must have no missing components or missing documentation from the original product or its packaging. We thoroughly inspect all returns.
