I know this isnt meant for a corsa board , but you have helped me so much

My mother in law has a Renault Clio , i think its mk3 (ind in headlights) P reg

I went to replace the brake pads on the front but there was no springs attached

On this caliper, it has a metal plate which you slide between the housing and the pad...just a little long flat piece

On the drivers side its fine cause it fits snug cause the metal was corroded and expanded

But on the other side the pads had fell down and was really dangerous

So i bought a breaking kit so i get the metal piece for the other side

When I got the brake kit, i noticed that it had springs in the kit, but i havent a clue where they go

Any Ideas ????

I tried to follow suit like the drivers side and just put a new metal plate in, but the pads are loose and make a bad noise

Basically i need to know how these springs go cause ive not seen em b4


Thanks all
