Yes, those are the part numbers for the aluminum calipers I installed. They
are truly a bolt-on if you also obtain the newer style caliper brake hose
which uses a banjo bolt attachment to the caliper. The e-brake cable has to
be re-routed slightly as the lever that the cable attaches to is on the side
of the caliper rather than the bottom. Not a problem as the existing cable
should have enough length.

When you say "OEM lighter calipers", do you mean aluminum 1J0 615
423/424 D calipers from a Mk 4?
If so, are they truly a bolt on, or do they require adapter brackets?
