The EMC Working Party issued a guidance document regarding aftermarket parts and spare parts in relation to the EMC and EMC Vehicle Directives. This document gives a clearer statement on the applicability of 2004/108/EC to spare parts. The document is written in regards to automotive parts, but it gives a better idea of how the EMC Directive should be interpreted.
http://ec.europa.eu/DocsRoom/documents/4543/attachments/1/translations/en/renditions/native I realized that this does not directly answer the question since it is automotive related. I am only offering it as evidence that the current interpretations regarding spare parts continue to be similar to the previous interpretations.

A strange omission. However, at the practical level, if you are supplying spare parts, make that clear on the invoice: These goods are spare parts for our product model XYZ. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only. With best wishes.
