Just priced up on Autodoc, but also notice some variable reviews on this supplier - I'm not in a rush so seems like it should be OK.

For 370mm/345mm M Sport + brakes all round:

TRW 2 piece slotted/perforated (M performance) discs - £120 front, £61 rear (each)
Brembo Pads - £59 front (91.2mm x 114.8mm), £49 rear (87.9mm x 71.9mm)

Total £473. Discount is 19% and runs for another 7 hours. I assume they keep cycling through new slightly changed prices & discounts so this is mainly a gimmick?

Pad sensor should be OK as is.

They also list a fitting kit is £9 front/back from A.B.S. Has pins (front only) & springs. Shown as part no. 1886Q front (and 1889Q rear) - no OEM part listed - is the right for the 370/345mm discs? Is this really necessary - I would not expect the pins to have any damage and the spring is - well a spring.

Is there any issue with fitting the M Performance parts in the blue brakes? They fronts are only £1 more than the unslotted disc at £199 so seems daft not to!

Has anyone fitted the JP Group 370mm slotted one piece disc? JP Group only £67, but probably a bit heavier. Not sure I'd notice!

(or Zimmerman - £70/£91/£100, REMSA - £63, A.B.S. £75, FERODO £77, DELPHI £92 etc.)

(PS I got some red CRC Disc Quiet so hopefully this will help kill squeal)
