OEM means original equipment manufacturer. Its “authentic “ as far as the same approved source the manufacturer uses. A manufacturer, in general, does not receive parts in the pretty commercial package. They are in bulk packaging.

Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are built by the company that initially made the parts for the auto manufacturer. OEM parts are just as reliable as genuine parts, but you get them for a better value.

OEM, Original equipment manufacturer part is a part made by the manufacture or made for them to their specification but an external company. A genuine part is a part supplied by the vehicle manufacturer in their packaging. Aftermarket parts are parts produced by any other company.

The really short answer is yes they will install aftermarket parts on vehicles. Dealers do this to make vehicles more desirable and well to make money given what they charge for such options. If you have a specific after market item you want installed the dealer may also have it done for you.

Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts match those that came with your car, and are of the same quality as its original parts. They’re also the most expensive. Aftermarket parts are cheaper, and made by other manufacturers — often several, giving you more options.

Napa may purchase the part at a higher cost because they purchase less or couldn’t get the same deal as other companies for whatever reason. Also Napa has to base charges off what they expect to make. Other places may sell more alternators so they can charge less and make money overall.
