Could just be the wrong side?

AFAIK, all the same FITTING.
Some have SUBARU in relief, others are blank.

he said the pads wont fit or something but i'm not sure , hes had the car 2 weeks tomorrow just to change clutch cam belt and mot (needing 3 tyres and front pads plus o/s front caliper now) which he said he been sent the wrong one but i thought they was all the same meaning all 4 pots are the same. now going to be early next week before we get car back :sleep:.

They are all the same , the early ones have the word SUBARU cast into them , the later ones were a sticker , as Jeff was trying to say lol
If the garage are telling you any different , they are wrong
