the stock pads i pulled from my '91 200q (back in '94) were a Ferodo 3411.
what the diff is btwn a 3411 and a DS11 i don't know...

i do know that ipc, my local parts shop, and a dealer commented that the
*current* pad may or may not be a Ferodo, even though that's what was
originally spec'd.  ipc said (tho i didn't order) they'd most likely be
Textar or Jurid, both of which brands i've used in the past (street use) and
they seem just like OE--that is, work fine and are dustier than *&^%%$.
