?�?�?? ?�?�???�?????�?� ?�?�???�?? ???�???????????�???�???????�???? ?�?�???�?� ???�???�???�?�?????�?� ?????�?????�?�?????�?�?�?�?? ?????????�?????????�?�?�?�?? ?�???�???????�???�?�??. Original spare parts. These parts are distributed through the official representatives of the car manufacturers. They always have the original packaging and labeling of the vehicle manufacturer.

???????�???�?�?�?????� ?�???�?????????????�?�?????�?�?� ?????�?�???? ???� ?????????????� ?? ???�?�?�???�???� ?�?�???�?????�?� ?�?�???�?�??. Non-original spare parts. The definition of "non-genuine" says nothing about the quality of spare parts. This means that they are not sold in a package by the vehicle manufacturer and are distributed not through official representatives, selling cars. The backbone of this group make known to the company manufacturers of spare parts, supplying parts to the assembly lines of car manufacturers. Because their equipment and technologies allow to produce parts for cars and many other manufacturers, they release the details, not only for the assembly line of any one or more avtosborschikov, but also for sale on the open market. These items have packaging and labeling parts manufacturer. The quality is not inferior to original spare parts, and the prices can be incomparably lower than that of the original assortment of slightly more modest than the original spare parts. The program includes top-selling and the most demanded items.
Large western parts dealers and collectors cars use your own packaging, purchasing a large range of original spare parts in bulk directly from manufacturers and selling them under its own brand.

Particular attention should be paid to the quality of purchased parts. Avoid buying very cheap parts (compared to the original and unoriginal known firms), since they often do not meet the standards of quality and safety. If a decorative molding poor quality negatively affects only the appearance of the car, the installation of low-quality brake pads or the oil filter can be a threat to the safety of passengers or cause great damage to the engine, so that the repair costs exceed many times the savings when buying cheap parts amount. Therefore, you should use the services or officials (original parts), or well-established vendors of non-original spare parts.

?� Has the vehicle any additional hardware (such as additional heater, a more powerful generator, air conditioning).
?� Gearbox.
?� Is there a catalytic converter?
?� Type of fuel injection system, etc.
?� Position the details.
