help
just replaced the front pads with vx pads but when taking the old ones out the sensors were knackered.
ive put the pads in as ive had to order the sensors but cant for the life of me see how i could fit a new set with out damaging the new ones.
might sound a stupid question
any help gladly received

sensor clips in to the inside pad, closest the engine, it clips in the top of the pad in the metal part at the top. Outside pad just slots in as normal, for the inside pad, put the sensor on and thread the cable through the gap in the caliper arm, pull the pad up tight against the caliper and swing the arm down. (watch your fingers!)
Needs a litle settling, make sure the spring on the pad is correctly pushed down.
Cable loops up by the brake bleed nipple, rubber thingy slips into the bracket near the shock, goes up and round to another bracket at the back of the wheel arch. Loops around again to the sensors towards the rear of the arch.

Always a 'pain in the a--' but worth the effort.
