Yes, I and my friend have purchased from them before. It looks like you could get branded or generic, my order was loosely wrapped EBC, but the one he ordered were not marked with any brand. I didn't complain, nor did he. Money well spent and if I remember fast delivery.

I put a set of these on my 1st gen and they seem to be doing fine.

A couple of years ago I picked up 3 generic sets for a MkI, and had to grind off the sides to get them to fit as they were too wide to fit down into the caliper opening.... I dont know if this is the same vendor???

The ones I got from this seller were much thinner than Yamaha pads. Maybe only half as thick.
