yes one part of the coverage is the use of OEM replacement parts but once you get into the high end multi beam LED headlights there are no aftermarket alternatives.

The higher the base value of the car the harder it is to get the value out of the coverage. It would need to be one hell of a hit to reach the write off threshold.

I would get it just based on the fact that your car is only new once but few people actually get the value out of the coverage.

Say you had a MB and you needed a new headlight, I'm assuming with the coverage, the repair shop will be authorized to install a brand new MB part vs some 3rd party aftermarket part or junk yard salvaged part.
