    Make sure you follow the instructions for bed-in procedure after installation. Brakes made some noises when pulling out of the garage when new.  After following the bedding-in procedure the brakes are very quiet! These brake pads are better than the stock Mercedes, more responsive and a lot less dust! The slotted/drilled rotors were a direct replacement with the correct location screw hole, as like OEM.
