Default Bad alternator?

I replaced the alternator in my 02 civic si and everythingthing seemed fine for a couple weeks then my lights starting dimming. Could this possibly be a faulty alternator or maybe the wrong alternator?

Probably, I've replace mine a couple times now. Use an OEM one and it should be good. You can also monitor the voltage while the car runs, it should be 12.5 - 14.5
