Non-Fixed IP Addresses
Blue Print LIVE requires a fixed IP address. If you do not have a fixed IP address, your access to Blue Print LIVE! will be limited to Catalogue access only unless you download our separate security program. This additional software is only compatible with a PC. For Mac users a possible solution to this could be to use Boot Camp, Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion or another Virtual PC application.
Blue Print LIVE! is a state of the art on-line catalogue, ordering and technical reference system which offers access and up to the minute detail on Blue Print's range of over 24,000 part numbers.
Blue Print LIVE! takes the Blue Print catalogue to the next level with:
Easy-to-use format that allows you to find a full list of the parts for the vehicle in question in just three clicks of the mouse.
Over 20,000 product images, including many in High Resolution
Technical bulletins and product dimension/specification information linked to each relevant part number
What’s more, the catalogue information is updated every night so you know that you have the very latest listings available to you every morning!
Much more than just a catalogue...
Enhanced functionality for direct account customers*
If you place your Blue Print orders directly with ADL, then Blue Print LIVE has even more functions to make your job quicker and easier. These include:
FREE registration look-up (VRM) function – simply enter the vehicle’s registration number and Blue Print LIVE! will instantly return the correct vehicle in our catalogue with a full list of parts we have available. It even works on Japanese ‘grey’ imports! (Not available in all markets)

Order online – no need to make any phone calls at all
Manage back orders, returns and warranties online

Letting us know your primary job function allows us to effectively communicate any important updates that are relevant to you.
Step 3
Asks if you have a 'Fixed IP Address'; your IP Address is a number that identifies your computer much in the same way as your home or mobile phone number. Some IP Addresses are 'Fixed' which means they never change, some are known as 'Roaming' or 'Dynamic' IP Addresses, which means they periodically change.
An IP Address consists of four numbers from 0-255 seperated by 'periods' (full stops) e.g. 1.163.15.254
Because of the security systems protecting Blue Print LIVE! if your IP Address changes, your username and password will not work.
If you have a 'Fixed IP Address' select 'Yes' then 'Register'; your application will now be sent for approval
If you DO NOT have a 'Fixed IP Address' or are NOT SURE click 'No' or 'Don't Know' then 'Register'
Once you have done this you will then need to download the 'Blue Print LIVE! Security Program' full instructions on how to do this are provided.
