My experience tracks JFP's comment above, unfortunately. The independent shop I went to installed cheap aftermarket axles on my 2002 S, and within less than 3,000 miles the outer grease crimps on both axles started leaking, leaving grease all over the inside of my rear wheels (and leaving the bearings short on grease, obviously). Money down the drain, IMHO. I decided to pony up for the OEM axles for the replacements. I found these photos online showing the difference:
