I do use the club shop (head, water pump etc) but this time it's either £160 club shop or £88 from ebay for what I need :shock:

Be careful buying cheapo ones on ebay. The lugs on some pads are slightly smaller than required causing the pads to flop around and cause annoying noises. I found this out to my cost recently. Also cheapo ones tend to cause a lot of brake dust messing up your alloys.

ebc brake pads get my vote mate, not too hard/soft and very low dust, and they fit without the clicking as stated above.
think kirsty has some part numbers if you need.
pm me if your struggling, you may need to ring her.

That's were I got mine from although I delt with the shop directly Deepvault Limited t?a Nippon Autoparts http://nipponautoparts.com, Meadow View Llanddewi, Llandrindod Wells, Powys. LD1 6SE. Rear Pads were allied Nippon asbestos free pads and Front Pads were Solid Ace asbestos free pads. Prices were similar.
