In place of the Valeo alternator I installed a Bosch VR6 120 amp alternator with a Bosch ABA alternator pulley (its 5 ribs versus 6 ribs of the VR6).
Pros: increased amperage
Bosch Icons are second to none.

I felt the stock 4th gen brake pads didn't grip as tight as would be expected on a 4 caliper brake system. So I replaced them with Bosch ceramic brakes. Highly recommend this to any of yall who feel the same.
If you slam on the brakes above 40 mph (when it is clear and safe to do so), you can feel the blood rush to your face.
Pros: tighter grip, improved braking
Cons: stock pads insufficient grip

Bosch icon is what I use. I’ve been super happy with them
Pros: super happy
The coils are Bosch and I assume the OEM from factory. I know they car is 18 years old, and I don't mind replacing them, but I'm curious if age, and not just mileage, plays a factor in coils and spark plugs. Manual says change spark plugs at 100k and it seems unusual to me for coils to fail with so few miles on them. I've had several other cars with over 150k miles that never had a failed coil, and one car even had over 250k miles (and about 25 years old). Could there be something causing these coils to fail prematurely? Should I look for a different brand than Bosch?
Cons: premature failure, unusual failure
I don't use spark plugs like that unless the vehicle specifically specs for them. We used to put Bosch W7DTC's in these, or at a minimum, just the single electrode version.

I replaced the originals after about a year, with Bosch aeros. These weren't any better than what I'd taken off
Cons: not any better
Vehicle:
Toyota
Luckily, and this is advice for everyone with regular wipers, do not buy the Bosch one. It sucks and jitters a lot. Buy Valeo from here.
Cons: sucks, jitters a lot
