Are hawk/hatch STi rear discs interchangeable?
Last year I bought a full set (4) of Brembo discs for my hatch when Eurocarparts had a discount and they are still in the loft waiting to be fitted when my current ones need replacing.
Looking at the part numbers of what I was supplied, it seems that Eurocarparts list the same rear disc part numbers for the hawk & hatch. Other suppliers (e.g. scoobyparts) list different part numbers for the rears between the hatch/hawk.
Suddenly I've remembered reading somewhere that the hatch ones are different (something with a hole that needs to be drilled for the handbrake if I am not mistaken?) from the hawk.
Could someone confirm this before I try to return them back to Eurocarparts (not sure if they'd take them back after 11 months despite not being used).
I'll post some pictures of them later when I get them down from the loft.
Thanks.

Hawk handbrake is adjusted via the brake back plate
Hatch is adjusted through the disk - hence the drilling a hole if not present plus balance dimple on other side. (Alcon rears)
