The current Bosch production isn't as good as it once was, but they 
are still quite good. If you can't find Bosch, I have them. I also 
have new Bosch which I have modified to give slightly longer life.

I don't know how long my modified VRs will last. I haven't worn one 
out yet and I think it's getting to be over 5 years. The originals 
lasted about 15-20 years. The Brazilian Bosch replacements seem to 
last about 5 years.

I don't care for the US made ones. By the time I see them they are 
already dead.
