I have just received my new front and rear pads + new sensors (just in case) from nick at yeovil excellent price and service.
I will be tackling these at the weekend, so before then is there anything i need to know about fitting these
Any tricks of the trade or any advice from you members who have done this before will be appreciated.

The connector for the sensor wire is a awkward to get to, you need to remove the fasteners that hold the wheel arch liner in place to get to the plug. Apart from that its dead easy.

Glynne,
Just out of interest, what did they cost you. Yeovil quoted me £263.94 inc VAT for the parts so I am taking it in to Matford who quoted me £410 all in, fitted inc VAT. I just don't get the time to be hands on anymore....

Thats not bad is it - my quote included 4 x Discs as well (Another reason why I wasn't going to do it myself!). Good Luck with your pads!
Cheers

GLYNNE,
If it's not too late could you please take a few photos for us all to view. In particular of the sensor coupling.
Hope thats not too much of a bind, thanks Ocsid

thats 72,000 miles worth of discs I suppose - there are some things money can't buy, for everything else, there's mastercard!
