Cool

only one thing I can suggest and that is to be very careful on re assembly.
Make sure you rebuild using some brake fluid as a lubricant on the seals, and watch when you put the piston back in, ensuring the seals dont "turn" otherwise you will not have any brakes when you press the pedal.

Best of luck !

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get these from, and how much?

Thanks!

Ordered them from my local dealer

16 quid for the front (std 4 pots) and 10 quid for the rear (again std ) for a MY00 UK

I guess VAT will go on top of those prices

they should be in friday, when I get them I will post the part numbers up

Thanks. Mine's going to be the same then. (Looking forward to the argument with the dealer telling me I don't have 4 pots on a MY96... )
