Your question are very vague. You will need a crawler to retreive all website pages, then you will need to parse all page html data to verify if it is a product or a driver and create two lists, one for the products and the other for the drivers.
Finally you have to insert the lists into a repository for later display in an interface.
What are your difficulty ? The model ? The crawler ? The page search ?
