Stop using capital letters please.  Order parts using your VIN for the proper parts, not just year, make and model.

Take the old part with you to the parts store to find a match.  Are there any numbers on the old part you can reference?  What about it doesn't fit?

Sorry you don't like the caps. Not yelling here just have eyesight issues. Have used VIN number on every dealer or parts house and they still come up with part number that does not fit. Any ideas on where to go from here. I can't believe we are the only ones with this problem. I appreciate your answer but need more as I have been giving Vin all along. Thank you very much looking forward to see what else can be done. 

 

Can you please post a picture of the original part that’s installed your vehicle? Does it look like this? https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/toyota,1997,camry,2.2l+l4,1273610,exhaust+&+emission,manifold+pressure+(map)+sensor,11207

Go get your reading glasses like I have to.

Or all browsers have a magnification/zoom function that increases text size.
