Default EBC Green = couple of questions

1. What do people think of them?

2. They come with a D connector - will this work on TT?

3. If the connector doesn't work - how easy/hard is it to splice?

TIA guys!

Mintex also a low-dust pad? I'm tired of cleaning my wheels!

Default they are crap, I got suckered into buying them via FPH way back in the day

and they stunk. They didn't make much of a difference at all in the dust reduction and they warped my rotors. Many others here complained about the rotor warping long before it happened to mine. They were also very loud pads. I've been using Mintex reds for a while now. Still not a huge reduction in dust. But I think it's noticable for the amount of driving I do. Otherwise they've been fine.

Other people may rave about the EBC greens. But I eventually had the same problem that others have complained about using these pads.
