That's why I mentioned the "confusing part" of the whole thing. You have to be careful because sometimes there is actually a difference in the part the same supplier sends to the manufacturer and the one you can by direct, and its not always obvious what the difference is. Also, when it comes to things like warranty, OEM really specifically means the manufacturer's version with there name on it, unless they use the generic part. Not to mention when there's different revisions on parts or updated part numbers for older parts, and so on. Like I said, gets messy.

On the bright side, the original question really was about aftermarket parts.

AM Vanquish O2sensors with AM part number on Scuderia $200. Each.
And there’s 8 of them. (V12 X two cats per bank X 2 sensors per cat).
Crossed it to a Bosch sensor that was $20 on Amazon.
