Who WAMS Works With — OEM GM Electronics for Owners, Shops, and Dealers

Who White Automotive & Media Services Works With

White Automotive & Media Services (WAMS) operates as a wholesale GM electronics provider that supports multiple customer types across the automotive ecosystem. While our work is often associated with advanced retrofits and complex programming, our business model is intentionally structured to serve everyone from individual vehicle owners to large professional operations.

This page explains who we work with, how pricing and support are structured, and why WAMS products often cost less than dealer-installed solutions while delivering factory-correct results.

Vehicle Owners & DIY Customers

Many WAMS customers are individual vehicle owners who want OEM-correct upgrades without paying dealer labor rates or accepting aftermarket compromises.

For these customers, WAMS provides:

  • Brand-new GM modules (never salvage or refurbished)
  • VIN-specific programming performed before shipment
  • Plug-and-play installation in most applications
  • Clear documentation and fitment requirements

Owners are not purchasing “raw parts.” They are purchasing programming, validation, and configuration work bundled into a ready-to-install solution.

Most installs require only basic hand tools and do not require dealer involvement.

Independent Repair & Installation Shops

WAMS works closely with independent repair shops, performance shops, and retrofit installers across North America.

For shops, WAMS acts as:

  • A backend programming and module supply partner
  • A source for OEM-correct solutions not available through normal dealer channels
  • A way to offer factory-grade upgrades without maintaining GM programming subscriptions

Shops handle the physical installation. WAMS handles the complex programming, configuration, and compatibility work that typically causes retrofits to fail.

Fleet Operators & Commercial Customers

Fleet and commercial customers use WAMS for:

  • Replacement modules with VIN-correct behavior
  • Configuration corrections after vehicle modifications
  • Consistency across vehicles built with different option content

Because GM frequently changes hardware, software, and configuration logic mid-cycle, fleet operators often encounter mismatched replacements or dealer limitations. WAMS resolves these issues upstream through controlled programming.

OEM Dealers & Dealer Groups

While WAMS is not a dealership, OEM dealers regularly source modules and programming assistance through WAMS when:

  • A requested upgrade is not supported by GM policy
  • A vehicle configuration falls outside SPS constraints
  • A replacement module must behave differently than the as-built configuration

Dealers often face strict limitations imposed by factory tools. WAMS operates outside those constraints while still maintaining OEM-correct behavior.

Wholesale Pricing — Why WAMS Is Often Less Than Dealer Installs

WAMS pricing reflects wholesale module supply plus programming, not retail service department labor.

In many cases:

  • The same GM hardware is used
  • The same VIN data is applied
  • The same end behavior is achieved

But without:

  • Dealer labor hours
  • Repeated diagnostic charges
  • Trial-and-error programming attempts

This is why WAMS solutions often cost less than dealer-installed upgrades, even though they use brand-new OEM GM components.

One Model, Many Paths

WAMS does not force customers into a single path.

  • Owners can install themselves
  • Shops can handle installation
  • Dealers can perform final security procedures when required
  • Fleets can standardize configurations

The product remains the same: OEM-correct GM electronics, configured correctly the first time.

Why Accurate Fitment Still Matters

Regardless of customer type, WAMS requires accurate vehicle information because GM frequently uses:

  • Multiple module revisions
  • Architecture splits
  • Security differences
  • Option-dependent logic

This is not complexity for its own sake. It is how OEM-correct behavior is preserved.

Summary

White Automotive & Media Services operates as a wholesale GM electronics supplier that sells directly to the public, while also supporting professional shops, fleets, and dealers.

The result is a single source for:

  • Brand-new GM hardware
  • VIN-specific programming
  • Factory-correct behavior
  • Clear installation paths for every customer type
