Yeps, Tischer is the best for OEM! You can also verify part# via www.realoem.com and when ordering from Tischer, make sure to enter your VIN# so they get you the right part as 2001 was a hybrid year and they mixed and matched generation parts.

Turner Motorsports is also a great place to check for parts!
