What is the difference between OEM and After Market parts?
OEM stands for “Original Equipment Manufacturers”. It represents the exact same parts that were supplied to the manufacturer during fabrication of the car. After market parts are made by companies other than OEM. Some after market parts are actually better than the OEM part. These parts meet or exceed the OEM design and usually carry a longer warranty period.Some offer a lifetime warranty. There are also after market parts that are lower in quality which have a reduced warranty period and are sold at a lower price. Moraga Motors only uses either OEM or after market parts that meet or exceed the manufacturers specifications.
