I need new sets of Discs and Pads, question is i haven't got a clue if they are Bendix or Girling, how can i tell prior to removing? also GSF do Discs and pads for £30+ Vat, i assume these are fine to use, so why do other places charge so bloody much? K-Tec etc £45+ for OE Discs, is there something i'm missing. just want to be sure i'm getting the right gear.
Also can anyone recomend a good Pad, the current ones stink like hell under heavy braking. is it worth getting Kevlar or similar to avoid this?
Cheers

16V? If so they are girlings.

Ktec etc make money from around 50% mark up on gear.

Oh yeah sorry 16v. It's just that the GSF brochure has got Bendix and Girling pad options for the 16v!
i knew "big NAme" places bump their prices up but that is just F**king ridiculus.
