All parts have to be TUV approved to pass the German MOT (iirc), which if the car has been maintained over here may not be the case. I may be hugely wrong on this, but it's worth checking.
I think EU manufacturing laws would mean that they're equivalent, but again-would hopefully avoid that issue if driving on foreign plates and insurance. Thanks for the heads up though-will do some poking about now to be sure.
