OEM vs Aftermarket Parts — What’s the Difference? 🚗
**OEM parts** are made by your vehicle’s manufacturer for an exact fit and consistent quality.
**Aftermarket parts** are made by third parties and can vary in fit, quality, and durability.
OEM parts typically offer more reliable performance, while aftermarket parts are often chosen to reduce costs.
The real question is: **What is covered under your insurance policy?**
Many policies allow aftermarket parts unless OEM coverage is requested. Know your options — it matters.
