im sure they can go both way's, one way's more noiser, but better braking, other's quieter, but slightly worse brakes..
im sure i've heard that somewhere year's and years ago

the grooves dont work effectly that way, there not taking as much heat out of the pads and they do the other way

as said above it doesnt matter which way they go but the other way has more advantages so will prob swop them over next weekend.
i had a similar set up on smokey and after the greenstuff pads where bedded in they were alot better than standerd

Backbox is different, i suppose it'll make the silencer section less viewable.
Once fitted send some pictures of your magnex to my phone
