I wonder if the corner workers would get pissed at me if I painted a spiral
on them... you can't count hit cones if you're hypnotized!

That did occur to me, actually - I remember picking the 10.1s up at the 
shop before they were installed and thinking "gee these seem heavier than
the stock ones".  The big ones are pretty nice, but I really don't know
that they're worth it for a little car like a Scirocco - and since I 
didn't install the bigger master cylinder they're really spongy now
(the main reason why I can't wait to install them - being DSP legal is
nice, but the guy that finishes consistantly 3rd or 4th doesn't usually
get protested much...).
