The new sets come towel-wrapped for added protection and value and cover about 300,000 additional late-model domestic and European units in operation. The SKU that includes a hardware kit fits the following applications: 2012 – 2013 Lexus GS 350. 2012 – 2013 Lexus GS 450H and 2012 – 2013 Lexus IS 350. The second SKU fits 2012 – 2015 Dodge Durango. 2012 Mercedes-Benz GL350, GL 450 and ML 350. The company says Bosch Blue Brake Pads are specially designed to deliver quality, value and performance to the ‘everyday driver. ’ Select sets come towel-wrapped, as do the current additions, in a material that is similar to the shop towels that technicians use on a daily basis while working on customers’ cars.

The new releases include one remanufactured alternator and 13 new and remanufactured starters.
