In decades past, tracking down the right parts and accessories for any car - Dodge parts and accessories included - could be a major headache, especially in the remote areas where many Dodge trucks are put to use. But online ordering and shipping deals have given everybody the power to easily order up the parts to make simple repairs or add some style.

There are three major categories of car and truck parts, and you should always be aware of which type you want before placing an order.

1. Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts are manufactured by the maker of the car itself. When replacing a worn or damaged part, OEM parts can be considered identical to the original.

2. Used auto parts. Used Dodge parts are available and affordable, though their condition is always a concern.

3. Aftermarket parts from other manufacturers are worth considering, especially when looking for auto accessories. Aftermarket repair parts for Dodge aim to replace the original for a lower price, while aftermarket replacement parts aim to provide the same function with more style or even better performance.

Here are your major options to consider when purchasing Dodge auto parts or accessories:
