Depending on their condition, you should be able to re-use your old springs, shims etc.

non-Renault pads wont come with them...not sure if genuine ones do or not actually.

You don't need anything bud.

There's an R type clip and a steel slide that can all be used again.

cheers mate, anything i need to watch out for ?

 

[Mr R.]

Hmmmmm. Remember to remove the washer from behind the old disc's and remember which way round it goes.

I'd replace the hub nuts as they are nylocks.

Also you must torque them back up to 175 nm. Failing to do this may fcuk up the bearings.
