Focus mk1 1.6 - brake pads
Discussion
Need to replace the pads on my Focus (Y reg 1.6zetec 5door). Have always just had basic pads but thinking of going for something better.
Any recommendations?
Current idea is for some EBC Greenstuff pads. About £47 on Demon Tweeks. Good price?
Also, are they pretty easy to fit myself?
Cheers

Get yourself a Haynes manual and you'll have no problem in fitting brake pads TBH...
Yeah. I've never done any car mechanics before, but can't see pads being too tough
Cheers Pod. Any thoughts on pads?
Give yourself plenty of time... and see if anyone you know who has done it before can help out... makes the first time a little less scary..
Greenstuff's seem to be a bit "marmite" TBH. I've had them before and liked them.
Also used Mintex 1144's (pretty good), but you're probably better asking on the FFOC in all honesty...

Signed up to there earlier today. They don't allow browsing of their technical forums without paying to join?? Didn't look for long so will have another butchers.
