Confusing? You bet it is. It was so nice when there was only one or two choices for parts quality - "Best Quality" or "Good Quality". Now they have umpteen zillion different part quality levels and to confuse us even more, each level has its own advantages and disadvantages. Plus, most of the parts stores employees are clueless as to what makes a part decent or a piece of cr@p.
Hope this helps!

GM is covering Dorman part labels with a white sticker and selling them as genuine GM parts (for over double the price, of course) https://www.reddit.com/r/Justrolledi..._with_a_white/

GM has been doing this for a few years on some of the parts they sell for "older" vehicles. If GM can't get the various engine management parts (ignition coils, sensors, etc.) from the original supplier, they purchase said parts from various companies including Standard Motor Products, and put them into the GM Genuine or ACDelco labeled boxes.
If I recall correctly, I read about this practice in Standard Motor Products annual report a couple years ago.
