Wow, big difference.  On lots of things I prefer to stick with OEM 
parts, and I've been surprised some of the local aftermarket guys are 
actually HIGHER priced than dealership parts, or especially dealers 
selling online at a discount (if you have a Nissan, 
http://courtesyparts.com is freakin' awesome (I have no affiliation 
other than a very pleased customer))
