What the terms mean
OEM or genuine parts follow the vehicle manufacturer's reference and specification. Aftermarket parts are made by independent manufacturers, while used parts are original components removed from another vehicle. Availability, price and suitability vary by component.
Choose according to the repair
There is no single correct condition for every enquiry. A routine service component may have reputable aftermarket options, while a body trim item or discontinued module may be most practical as a used or imported part.
- Confirm the exact vehicle and part number first
- Ask which condition is being quoted
- Consider lead time as well as price
- Check whether electronic parts require programming
- Use a qualified installer for safety-critical components
