So we're both guilty of overgeneralizing. Moral here is to call the dealer ahead of time - SOME dealers will accept outside parts, SOME dealers will not. However, I haven't heard of a dealer outright refusing to install outside or non-OEM parts, they might just not warranty it. I got this as a response from a dealer or two.
