Don't have pick and pull yards in Southern, CT.. wish we did. "Oh you want 
front calipers and used rotors of a wrecked '87 16v rocco? Yeah... $175,

I had those on an '82 Scirocco way back when.. Are they really all that? Do 
they prevent expanding of the brake lines under hard braking? I was never
