Add a free VIN decoder to your site
For dealers, forums, mechanics, and parts sellers. The widget calls NHTSA VPIC live — no API keys, no signup. Drop the snippet on any HTML page. Attribution link is required and lives outside the iframe so it can pass link equity.
What you get
- Compact VIN input + decode output (engine, drive, fuel, recalls).
- Light or dark theme via
?theme=light|dark. - Mobile-responsive, no third-party trackers.
- Visible attribution link to checkmyvin.net (outside the iframe).
Why the attribution link sits outside the iframe
Search engines do not count links inside an iframe toward the host page's outbound link graph — the iframe is treated as a separate document. The visible attribution link directly below the iframe is what gives your site (and ours) the SEO value of a real reference. Removing or hiding it is a violation of the terms of use.
