To be honest. I have no reason to believe that the German one is better.
We've sold the South African one (which is OEM VW) for years and had not
one lick of trouble with them (nor with the German ones).  Some people
believe that anything with the magic "G" word on the box is by
definition better.  If you feel that way, spend the extra $50 for your
own peace of mind. But frankly when I needed one for my own Vanagon, I
used a South African one.
