They were a revelation on my car too. The VW ones are well under engineered. Did you get the anti-lift ones or standard hole in the middle style?

Took my Polo to BWA Auto to remove APR tune back to stock.
I felt like I was taking my pup in to have him desexed.
Poor Polo. I think he felt better when I told him we are going
to bolt on a big set of Frankenturbo Kuhunas soon.
SAI delete completed today. Engine bay looks so much neater now. Lets see how long before I get a light.
not quite today, more like 3 weeks ago....
changes my front brake pads and discs (from factory at 63,000kms). used a thread on this forum as a guide (but stuffed if i can find that thread now).
ended up using stock pads and discs.
the whole job took about 3 hours and that included 1 hr hunting around in my toolbox for the correct size torx thingy for the retaining screw. Original pads still had plenty of wear on them, but the little electric cable that triggered the dash warning light was broken.
smead, did yours bust where the electric cable connects to the disc, which is pretty close to the pad surface?
Sure did. Pain in the A@# light came on. Zip tieing appears to fix it :)
I had my windows tinted yesterday;

Sorry for the crappy photos, it wasn't a nice day yesterday when I took them.
