I'll probably open a can of worms here, but I am a firm believer in using O.E.M. (Factory) parts. Sometimes they are a little more expensive, sometimes they're cheaper ( compare a "rebuilt" starter price against a BRAND NEW Chrysler for a 3.0 liter Mini-van!), but OEM parts fit better, and have a better warranty. Of course, there are a few exceptions here and there, but IMHO, OEM is the way to go!

It seems like almost EVERYTHING is now imported,NAPA,Carquest,etc.It's getting really hard to find real quality anymore,I don't know what to suggest.It's a shame.
