Aftermarket VS OEM
As a supplier of marine engine parts, we want to share some insights with our valued customers regarding the aftermarket versus OEM parts.
Firstly, many marine engine manufacturers, such as Suzuki and Honda, often don't manufacture all of their components in-house. Instead, they choose to procure these components and assemble them. This practice is widespread in the automotive industry as well. Therefore, opting for aftermarket parts doesn't equate to compromising on quality, as these components often come from the same manufacturers as those supplying the original equipment.
For instance, certain SeaSierra components may originate from manufacturers that also supply well-known marine engine manufacturers. With our in-house factory, we maintain strict control over the production process, ensuring that SeaSierra components meet the same high standards as those of the original equipment.
We also recognize that there can be variations in quality for some exterior and electrical components in the aftermarket. Therefore, at SeaSierra, we exercise extra caution in selecting the products we supply, ensuring their quality and reliability.
Lastly, we understand that customers may sometimes encounter issues with purchased components, such as damage or malfunctions. However, isolated incidents do not reflect the overall quality of aftermarket products, and similar situations can occur with original equipment parts. We recommend thorough research before purchasing, checking user reviews for specific products, or consulting with professional technicians for additional advice.
By choosing SeaSierra, you not only gain access to premium marine parts but also benefit from the advantages of our in-house factory, ensuring that your boating experience remains consistently reliable.
