      I’ve been repairing cars for over 15 years. There’s a massive spectrum for quality on almost any aftermarket replacement part. Literally the same part can range from $50 to $400 and the only difference is quality and durability.

      Sometimes the cheap part is fine, sometimes they cause weird problems. Especially electrical parts.

        yeah sure, but that is unlikely to kill you or someone else, and diy repair is almost always good for the consumer
