I would personally go with a stock Sachs kit, but that is me.  I did buy a
Brute Force kit (Borg Warner) about 4 years ago-hadn't heard of the
Pottermans yet.  I didn't use the PP and dug it out last summer for my MkI
2.0 16V and one of the bolt holes was off, so it was junk.  But the disc
itself seems good.  The T/O bearing probably is included  (mine was) and
you can replace it if you want, they don't go bad often since they're in
the Transaxle.  I don't know what clip you are talking about though.  Have
you tried Potterman for a quote?
