I'm always very skeptical of parts these days... lots of cheap knockoff stuff being made and rebranded or labeled as OEM.

I recently ordered a new "OEM" HID ballast for my Audi from Amazon. FCP wanted $300 for a OEM ballast, I found one on Amazon for $60 from a somewhat big parts seller too... What arrived was clearly not a OEM part. It came in a zip lock bag. It was dirty, rough metal finish and a completely different shape than OEM. But it had OEM stickers on it. I sent it back.
