Default This a good timing belt/water pump?

Is this a good timing belt and water pump to get? It says OEM, but I'm just making sure... It seems like a very complete kit, at a good price. However, on any other vehicle I've owned I always got the belt/water pump from the stealership just due to the quality of the parts, but I think this should be alright. What do you guys think?

Seems like a reasonable package price. You might want to compare prices here.

The prices were much more expensive at Majestic Honda. Should I be concerned that the parts I originally posted are of a lesser quality then the ones straight from the Honda dealer? Because I would rather spend more and get a better quality part, but the ones I listed state that they are "OEM" which would mean they are the same thing I'm looking at from the Honda dealer, correct?

I don't know whether the Majestic parts are any better than the less expensive ones you are considering. They may even be the same. I go with Majestic because the parts are discounted compared to the Honda dealer and are genuine Honda.

Okay, I think I'm just going to get the parts from Majestic... It would be nice to save some money, but a timing belt/water pump is not something I would feel too good about cheaping out on.

Thanks for the help, RonJ, I really appreciate it!
