Thanks Mike, yes I'm cautious about the pins, having read all the reports...
I think yours is a good idea.

Any preferences on kind of grease?
. Cheers, Greg

Also need a drift.

Anybody know the correct size I should order?

Greg,
I bought a set of these parallel punches, which worked perfectly well.

Thx Mike! Set ordered! Greenstuff pads ordered today too. Boy am I looking forward to the low dust everybody raves about. I clean my wheels twice a week at the moment. A right pain. So glad to get rid of the old pads, whatever make they are!

Found I've got a tube of this Mintex Ceratec:

Any good? Cheers, Greg

Punches arrived, as did the pads and sensors.

Went for Greenstuff pads in the end. Shopped around and got a best price from a place called bearmach. Arrived next day so all good there, recommended.

Planning to do it over the weekend, to be prudent I WD40'd the pins this morning, I even gave them a test tap and seemed to move.

Fingers crossed I don't have pin/caliper corrosion issues like many others have had.
. Cheers, Greg

Ok Drivers side done:

In hindsight I should have ordered new clips. Just for aesthetics.

Pin-wise, I had a little trouble with the centre bolt, but the two outer pins came out easy.

I also didn't realise there was only one wear sensor - on the NS.

Having ordered two, I now have a spare!

One side, taking my time including jacking , wheel off and setting out tools to cleaned up, wheel back on:
1 hour 10 mins.
(that's with no real pin trouble)

After lunch: passenger side.

Cheers, Greg

Both sides done now:

greased in the right places, wear sensor done, wheel nuts torqued.
All good, no snags and a quick job at an hour a side roughly.

Many thanks for tips.

And Northernmonkeyjones' Wiki a great help.

New onto to the next job

. Cheers, Greg
