I had to replace mine earlier on in the year due to old ones seizing. Got them from VW and think they cost somewhere around £150 mark for the pair.

Bigger,Vented discs are fitted standard to the later South African built T3.
The kit is new calipers,Discs,Pipes and Hubs,and you need 15" rims.
I`ve only found them available as a kit from America.
But me and mate are looking into what parts are needed.
