I did not get a price for disc machining as I did not think they needed it but on close inspection......  .
I wouldn't think it would be much more than $60 for 2. Did you think I would leave you crying,

Hi Simon, Of course you can't (as you probably got them at "trade")

Just been quoted $500+ for front pads with machining and sensor. 
$135 for pads
$25 for sensor
$90 for machining
$250 total
leaves $250 for fitting

Alto dropped the price for me.
They said the disks look ok just be careful till bedded in. So ditched the machining.
only two sensors  already had a pad go down to metal without triggering the other sensor.  “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

When mine gets to that point, I am keen to upgrade to the V8 Discs, and pads etc.
It would make me feel a whole bunch better, spending the money. Why is the fear of long words called hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia?

I support Catweasel on this. If you don't have sensors on all 4 wheels, they just lull you into a FALSE sense of security.

I did think of putting sensors on the other wheels, should be a matter of a couple of wires across from the other side. And a couple of connectors as the work by shortiing out just connect in parralell.  “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€
