Don't bother with these. TBH I'd surprised if the Sport's brakes are noticeably better than what you've already got. Most likely to be the same, but they could be worse!
As Alcazar says, the only OE parts worth retrofitting are the four pots. Put the money you've got now towards a set of them, and keep an eye on the For Sale pages for a bargain...

thanks gents.....
ps..bought a omp strut brace-(off same car)-nice nick-trial fitted ok.£30.
to fit do i just do anything more than unbolt the required bolts from the strut top-or "will the old girl fall apart on my drive"?*
*sorry for being too technical.i'll try and keep it more simple in future...and if it does fall apart-i'll have a dust pan and shovel to hand!

the weight of the car will hold the struts in place - you get me?
