Bosch OEM are £22 a set on trade through a wholesale outlet. Pagid do a good OE spec pad as well.

Do you have any contact info PDT?

Try your local Andrew Page (if you have one nearby) for Bosch. Eurocarparts sell Pagid OE pads.

Whats that?? yellow pages or something ?

I can also recommend the lads down at brakesint  :happy2:

The pads at £29 will be OE equivalent Bosch/Jurid most likely and will probably work out at £40 posted to you steve as its £29 plus the VAT etc, its a shame but brakesint have stopped stocking Textar/Pagid iirc as they were well worth the extra £15 for a better pad compound imo...

My choice Steve would be Mintex M1144 (MDB2604 1144), shoot DaveB a PM as he can get a cracking price on these and they are a HUGE improvement over OE spec pads, budget around £85 but worth every penny  :happy2:
