vauxhall's own discs and pads on trade club prices are pretty good value,pad wear sensors come seperate so need to be bought as well if yours are worn through

EDIT if you don't have a trade card try a pm to andyc as he is parts manager for a gm dealership

Rear discs; Solid discs/drums to '00 90444513 £94.00 £79.96 £65.81

Get the shoes from a motor factors. Stick with genuine discs/pads for front. Can`t see a problem using aftermarket for rears

Hand brake shoes scource elsewhere as vaux are £43  :o

Brake disc & pad kits, front (axle set)
All models exc. 2.0 to '97 93175466 tc £80.15

Brake discs/drums, rear
Solid discs/drums to '00 90444513 tc £65.81

Rear All models disc pads 93169001 tc £12.23

last time I ordered wear sensors cost £10 each

all prices + vat

would reccommend genuine front discs as I beleive pattern ones have a tendancy to warp quickly
