I just need some rear wheel cylinders and new shoes. Should I order real German ones or something like this?

I don't care where you get them, but brake components, what you want are ATE items first, then Varga second. Skip the Chinese crud dude, brakes are worth the money. Luckily for Bay's there is still a number of good items available.

The boots look correct, this is something I learned to look for years ago.
