Good to know, and good customer testimonials, but my oh my, why do companies let themselves down with simple mistakes like this? :eek3::

INTENT: To be the best. Without the motivation or care, no person can do great work

Pro Calipers look like the place to go.
I need to start a list of what to get for the referb.
Maybe I should add brake hoses to the list?
Any suggestions for those or anything else I should do whilst I am at it?

So Far:
Discs and Pads (list given many thanks)
Caliper rebuild
Brake Hoses
??

Thanks again.

If you do, part numbers are as follows:

Front: 4D0611707F or 4D0611707H
Rear: 4D0611775G

Also, depending on what state the retaining springs for them are in (see image), that part number is 4D0611715B.
