Well, the last time I did the rear brakes on my 92 Passat 16v,
I noticed that I could *probably* flip them over and use them
as Scirocco rear calipers on the opposite side.  They're much
cheaper (like $80-$90 new), it might be worth investigating.
Talk with Mike about it (after he gets back), and see if he'll
let you try it.
