I used them a few months back to put new brake pads on my rear brakes. Done without any hassle and quickly too. Dropped it off in the morning and went to a local cafe for about an hour.
Yep I have upgraded my fronts (Tarox) and have had that for about 8 months now. Got a set of R32 Rears ready to go on but I am going to send them away to get powdercoated the same colour as the Tarox's.

Sounds sweet Alex, will look forward to the pics when the rears are installed. I guess the fronts look the part and will stop a bus, ala Owen's RS4 setup? nice!
Another general question (im untrained...!) please,
Do i require all of the kit listed below for conversion of MKII FR TDI to MKII
Cupra? What im trying to say is there any common parts that can be re-used or is it not really worth it for the cost of the new parts anyway?
Upgrade FR brakes to
Cupra - MKII Leon
