R Pad Retaining clips
« on: July 15, 2010, 12:33:11 pm »
Some will call me a tight git but does anyone have the p/n for these:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320557791665&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en

I'd imagine they'd only be a pound or two from the dealer (which I'm calling in at this afternoon), they're not that helpful for searching for things like this hence the post here.

I know its a long shot hoping they are cheaper and an even longer shot hoping they have them on the shelf when I call by in the next hour or so.  :sad1:

Just come back from the dealers and they quoted £13.69  :surprised: each although I'm not sure they were looking at the right part. The P/N they quoted was V4F0 615 269.

Those are the ones, look good on your VRS. Did you get them from the same ebay seller?

I take it you have to have R32 brakes for these to fit?

I would imagine so as the Caliper is bigger on the R32 than the Standard GTi/ED30

Got mine today  :pomppomp:, the correct VW p/n's for these are: 1K0 615 269 B, not what my dealer quoted me (above).
