If let's say you have an accident, and after scrutiny, an inspector finds that your brake pads were installed by JackThePartChanger (Indy?), both are accountable: a)the vehicle owner and b)the (illegal) installer. Insurance won't pay.. blah blah.. you see where this goes

Luck with finding a cheap and 'legal' indy/mechanic here (all illegal stuff really)

There... some culture difference for you guys lolll
"Already in place in China" this from the land of knock off Rolex's and Gucci bags. Copyright laws appear to be unenforcible in the land of tea and oranges. And here in Manitoba i can see the public car insurance monopoly getting on this bandwagon as a way to deny claims.
