That fitting kit is wrong for vented calipers :y

Only the pins innit  :-\

Retainer clip too :y bin there done that :y

Ah yes , i remember BG talking about these and the way around it  ;)
Reuse your old ones. Or buy vented fitting kit for a couple of quid
Using the supplied clips will lock your pads out, meaning no rear braking...

As for order the correct kit for a couple of quid, that's £20, from VX only, seeing as how noone has yet been able to actually produce the correct length pins for an Omega vented caliper... ::)

The shims are fine, but you might as well give the other fittings to TB given how he gets through rear pads ;D

No end of shit at Christmas time due to no one being actually able to produce the correct dimension parts, inspite of what their epcs were saying ::)

I get a feeling I kept the packaging, given the problems. I'll see if I can find it.
