new pads for the front, hopefully the discs will arrive this week as they need to be machined up to fit. hoping the pads are the correct ones as well actually. reyland dont sell the stuff for the brake kits anymore which is great news....
45 degree -6 fitting
the braid has came out, and the angle on it isnt the best. hoping the 45 will cure that quite nicely.
should be grand.

discs for the reyland brakes. need the centres removed, then drilled to fit the bells as its a 2 piece disc on them. hopefully theyre the right discs......
ashtray the corsa c was missing in the front. its not that i use ashtrays in cars, its just that it wasnt there, which kinda annoys me weirdly.
can put my phone in it when its plugged into the radio which is a bit easier to get to than it flying around in that empty hole.

got the disc off one side so i can get the new ones machined up and drilled to fit the bell.
old pads look fine............
checking size etc to compare them to the mg tf trophy pads. exactly the same. nice.
big lip on the inside of the old disc. outside is fine.
fitted the new pads into the caliper ready for when the discs are done.
sxi lights for corsa c
old ones have the red on the outside of them
comparison
and done.
