actually u cannot be 100% sure in pakistan, but had purchased those shocks for my friends khyber so i did have an idea
secondly i'll tell u what are the original parts in pakistan
i have worked in an auto parts manufacturing company for a year and a half in 2003 to 4, that company supplies parts to almost all car manufacturers in pakistan and also to some in europe
ok what was happening at that time, when that company supplies parts to the suzuki and toyota, a lot of parts from those rejected by the car manufacturers and instead of sending those back to the vendor they pay reduced price to the vendor and sale those parts in the open market labeled as "Original Parts" SUB MIL MILA K
i dont know if this happens now or not but this the story of only one company
