Year Make Model Search for WooCommerce

It has fixed number and the sort order of the drop-down selects:
— Make —
— Model —
— Year —

Product restrictions are used for searching and for drop-downs options in the search box.
So if you set a restriction like:
Acura, CL, 1997, 1998

for a product.

The “Acura CL 1997” will be already selectable in the search box on the front-end.

Main Features:

• Search for products on the home page
• Filter products on category pages
• List applicable vehicles on the front-end product view page
• CSV import / export for product restrictions
