They do not require any added maintenance than what would be required for a new bolt. When you say "We sell..." are you referring to a VW dealership? I'm sure VW has a substantially different pricing structure in Canada. Prices in the US are definitely higher. Even at the Canadian price, it's still 3-4 times higher than "used" prices. BenT |
