The best place to buy car parts is RockAuto, Amazon.com or eBay online and for offline car parts purchases the best place to buy the car parts is Oreilly Auto Parts or AutoZone or even Napa Auto Parts.

The largest auto parts supplier in the US is Genuine Parts Company and Magna International.

The top 3 importers of Automobile spare parts are India with 1,530,907 shipments followed by Indonesia with 481,467 and United States at the 3rd spot with 134,013 shipments.

The best brand of aftermarket car parts are Dorman, Bosch, Spectra and Delphi.

Most aftermarket parts as good as OEM although when it comes to electrical parts I've found that OEM parts are better than aftermarket parts.

OEM for auto parts means Original Equipment Manufacturer.

OEM is the same as dealer parts as dealer parts are also OEM.

If you purchase OEM parts they are dealer parts.

Aftermarket parts are any parts that are not made by the manufacturer.

The difference between OEM and genuine parts is a genuine part is a part that is supplied by the vehicle manufacturer in their packaging.

An OEM part or Original Equipment part is a part that is made for them to their specifications but from an external company.

OEM parts are better than aftermarket parts in most cases and for some parts.

However some aftermarket parts are just as good as OEM parts and are cheaper.

It is OK to use non OEM parts although if your vehicle is still under warranty the use of non OEM parts can void your vehicles warranty.

However if your car is not under warranty or you have the car paid off there's nothing wrong with using aftermarket non OEM car parts which can be just as good as OEM parts and cheaper.

However electrical parts are better when bought as OEM as they last longer than non OEM electrical car parts.

The best brand of aftermarket car parts is Dorman, Bosch, Spectra and Delphi.

Duralast auto parts are also good aftermarket car parts.

It is better to buy car parts online if you don't need the car parts right away.

If you need the car parts right away then it's better to buy them at an auto parts store but if you can wait for the car part then it's best to buy the car parts online as they can be cheaper than buying car parts in store.

The best place to buy auto parts online is RockAuto, eBay, Partsgeek.com and Amazon.com

These are the places where I buy my auto parts from.

Most auto parts I buy from eBay although sometimes I can only find the auto parts I need at RockAuto, Amazon or Partsgeek.

You can get most auto parts online cheaper than you can in an auto parts store.
