If it helps to reassure, the Apec Braking website usually has excellent diagrams and measurements of the various pads so you can identify what's fitted to your car.

Thanks guy's. I haven't had brakes apart yet hoping to get pads first!
Have done them before but can't remember what they look like even and was hoping to get them and do same time as sorting out spring catcher on strut that's loose! rattling like a Street Chuggers tin on Speed!

You should get a good idea of what shape and size the existing pads are just by whipping a wheel off and having a good look and a bit of a measure.

They look like ones posted have butterfly spring on backs
