Bosch Horn
clintg60-16v
  • Loudness:
  • Tone:
Rating 5.0

I put a Bosch horn from a '68 Mercedes 250SE in my Rabbit. Sounds like an "old" car and has a unique awesome tone. I used the lo-tone one (bought the pair) and sold the other Bosch hi-tone on eBay for $115 They cost me $6 for the pair at a junkyard; got lucky.

Pros: unique awesome tone
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Ferodo Brake pads
fuscobal
  • Braking:
Rating 4.0

Well, I was talking abou OEM rotors with DS2500 pads, not OEM pads. I replaced the stock pads after 30k wich was reasonable but DS2500s have much higher friction coeff.

Pros: higher friction coeff
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 30000 km

Mintex Brake pads
Ginster
  • Braking:
  • Dust:
Rating 1.0

I had a set of Mintex Red Boxes on my '98 GTI-VR6. Other than producing less dust (or a less-visible dust), I thought they were garbage. The stock pads stopped and felt better.

Pros: less dust
Cons: garbage, felt worse
Vehicle: Volkswagen
