I would seriously avoid all those.  Genuine wheel bearings are not that much more than those fleabay sellers.  As for the cam belt kit - are you seriously considering a non-genuine cam belt - when the potential damage to the engine could right-off an early GTI.  Not to mention how long the rubber belt has been sitting on a shelf deteriorating . . .
