Talking EBC brake pads for stock beetle brakes.... Here's what you have to order

Hey everyone.
Just ordered myself some EBC greenstuff V4 brake pads for my 1303.

http://www.ebcbrakesuk.com/catalogue...3/1/index.html

Top 3 on the page linked above. D30 DP2105 is the part number for the ones on my 1303 (which were part of a conversion kit from GCC). D31 DP2104 is for the slightly larger 1600 item.
Measure your pad as they both look the same.

If you have never used EBC Greenstuff pads give them a go. Practically ZERO brake dust, they last longer and seem to grip better too We have them on all out cars (parents ford focus and all their morris minors, some with sierra disk conversions, some original)

Should be in stock by weds/thurs next week.

This is quite an upgrade for a basically stock braking system. EBC pads work a whole lot better than any other pad weve used (on dads tuned up morris minors and the 2L zetec ford focus they drive).

Cya,
Sam C

i used to run greens on my old pug 306.

My stock pads used to fade real bad when giving it some over the yorkshire dales, greens were much better but I could still get them to fade after a bit of abuse.

The only thing i would say is watch out on a morning if there is no heat in them, as they can feel like wooden blocks being pushed against the disc. Just get some heat in them & they're fine

EBS Greens are awesome!!!

Cost a little more but are incredible. Definately worth the extra couple bucks.
