yes and no.
Yes...if you don't want that idiot light
No....save some money and you disable the light using a VAG-com

Most of the pads come with the sensor wire. If you don't need it, you can just snip it flush. There is not a huge price difference. Pay more attention to the quality of the pads.

No, you do not need those pads. When you install the new pads (sans wear sensor) simply do the Vag-Com adaption to eliminate the break pad wear alarm/light.
