Just a quick question, just started to fit my new rotors and they have a L & R handing mark on them, now is this looking at the front of the car or looking behind ??
Have taken the two fronts off pretty easy stuff just don't want to have to do it again if I get it the wrong way around.

Cheers John

I'm gonna go with Drivers side being the L, seeing American cars are Left hookers. Only a guess mind you biggrin

Yep, I would agree with Cliffy........it is omportant to get the disks the right way around otherwise the air won't be sucked into the vents on the disks correctly.

Cliff and Nigel are correct. Left is as seen looking from behind the car (or sitting in the driver seat looking forwards). so on a Vette, left is the same side as the infamous "left hand drive".

Better order another set of disks to install after the "parade lapwink" at Le Mans.... unless you remember to let them cool a bit before stopping completely. There was some fairly heavy braking to wipe off lots of speed for the Mulsanne chicanes last time I went out - but actually they cooled a bit as we got back toward the Porsche curves and dropped off our (rather greeney white) passengers.

Have a great time. I will be in Jamaica unfortunately....
