> ATE and Brembo make pads that are OE on vanagons.




Brembo is an Italian brand.  While they are an OE supplier to many auto
makers, and are generally a quality product, I was not/am not aware of them
supplying VW with OEM Vanagon brake pads.  ATE and Pagid are the names
usually seen (also Girling, in the past if not presently). The ATE's are
usually Italian made, even though ATE is a German company (who knows, maybe
Brembo is actually making them??). The Girlings and Pagids are German.   I
generally ship Pagid.
