I`m presuming they are EBC redstuff pads you`ve fitted. Would be interested in your opinion on them after you`ve bedded them in, I think they say it takes approx 200 miles to bed them in properly.

Glad you are pleased with them then. Even more satisfying when you`ve fitted them yourself. No stopping you now then ( excuse the pun ) you`ll be doing timing belts next LOL.
Well done

Sorry this is Arkwright replying my missus is still logged in

Lol, very inventive.

Though on a serious note I would never work on a car just on a scissor jack, at least put the wheel under the car, if you haven't got axles stands.
