Lockup advice?

Peruse the brake pad options at www.parts4vws.com   Mintex pads have worked well for me.  If you don't use the E-brake, the calipers won't get hung up.  The problem is that now that I haven't used my calipers in two years I can't get them to work enouch to pass an inspection, so I'm replacing them.
