Well I've just ordered these on e phone and going to collect in the next hour. There the FRS Mk1 pins and clips. Was having a look online after you mentioned them and a few people say there the same caliper as the mk1 rs, so taking a gamble on these, as £150 from seat is just a joke

Update.

picked them tested fitted them and they dont fit. Upon measuring they are 88 x 72mm, they are simply too wide, so the FRS brembos might share the same pads, but there not the same caliper, there wider. The pins are a few mm longer too.

update 2

went to a big Renault dealer and bought a brembo pin kit for a Megane 225. Cost me £30 a side and need both sides so £60 in total. The pins wont fit cause there too long but the good news is the retaining clips fit. I dont know how they compare to the original LCR ones as i never seen or had them. My plan is to sell the pins i dont need on ebay for £10 each to try and recover some money, if i can sell them at that price, then ive paid £20 for the 2 pad retainers

So who ever finds this post in the future MK1 Focus RS pins and pad retaining clips wont fit the LCR Brembos, but the Megane 225 retaining clip will fit, and both Renault kits cost less then what seat sell 1 kit for.
