Do the rear brake pads have the metal clips that the pads slide in for my Leon FR 1.4 SC where do you buy these clips from ?
As there are different pads that fit the rears I'm not sure what pads i need . Do they need sliding clips ? they are not showing on ECP page


Thanks Steve

No, you don't have any separate caliper abutment clips on the rear brake.

Anyway, if your car at the age it is, did have these pads, then you could just remove them, clean them up with scotchbrite pad and brake cleaner, and reuse them.
These pads are listed under fitting accessories or similar, on the ECP website, I bought them for my wife's 2015 VW Polo, which did not have them fitted from factory, just to see if I could fit them to that car - not possible without removing some metal from the calliper carrier, so that "upgrade" did not happen.
