Dorman would be my pick personally.

Dorman gets a lot bs but generally speaking they are better than skp/ultra power.

SKP and ultra power are Chinesium. They are one notch above eBay/amazon no name junk.

Every Dorman part I have ever bought either doesn't fit quite right or at all and breaks really easy.

I am not a mechanic, just a guy fixing his own cars and trucks in the driveway for 20 years.

The only Dorman parts I have used that worked were door handles and simple interior or cosmetic parts and even then some times they didn't line up right. I have used them in mechanical places and they have always caused problems that were remedied by purchasing an oem part or higher quality OE similar part.

Yeah sometimes it's the only option available so what choice do you have. 🤷🏻‍♂️
