These are OEM ChengFeng Mitsubishi. So - yes made in China, not Japan. They are packaged in Chengfeng boxes. Clones? for sure there are various degrees of copycats in China. I have been frequently traveling there since 2004 and lived there working as the Quality Manager in one of our automotive components manufacturing facilities in Fuzhou for 6 months in 2008 - I'm not an expert on Chinese copies, but do know quite a bit. My co-worker (native Chinese guy) on that side of the pond is also an automotive engineer (mechanical in manufacturing) like me. He is purchasing these through a contact at SOUEAST Motors China Mitsubishi manufacturing company.

I changed the title to OEM Mitsubishi instead of AISIN to avoid confusion.
