Brake pad clips
« on: 27 March 2010, 17:56:16 »
Are the brake pad spring clips (rear) available as a separate item from the dealer?

Mine have had it, pads and discs are good condition so no need to change them just the clips :y

Mick ;)

In fact, the ones supplied by dealers (non OE) don't come with them anyway

The OE pads I bought from Vx dealer didn't have the clips included, but they do sell them seperatley.
I tried a kit from a motor factors but they only listed them for non vented discs.

OE as in the £70 a pair ones? They should come with fitting kit.

The GM 'aftermarket' ones (about £15) don't

I assumed they were OE, bought from a dealer in GM packaging, I think they were about £45 for front & rear sets.
