93169001 - £11.14+ VAT for rear pads (They are TC)



fitting kit - you can use the old stuff...

A bit more like it. :y

Kevin

Yep , thats the correct price....i only used to pay £11-£12 for mine from vx dealer....
I used to wind them up tho.....ask for a part.....then ask if they had the trade book handy....which they always passed to me.....i could find the part number from the book faster than they could find it on the computer!  ;D ::)

I bought some of the TC ones last week  c 11 quid (and with 10% off too)

While in there I asked about whether you could buy the pins/spring bit separately (the spring on my saloon has come apart).
Apparently you used to, but now the only way is to buy the original pads/fitting kit which was c 50 quid.  Apparently the TC ones are 'aftermarket' - whatever that really means.

They are around a tenner on TC. Sounds like they are quoting for shoes!

I have some 10% off TC prices on pads (and fuel filters) this month, but think they are only valid at my dealer.

fyi I just bought a fitting kit in Halfords - looked about right and included springs and pins.   Only cost a couple of quid so I thought worth a try.
