I didn't even know they existed and have never seen them mentioned in any workshop manual - are they for real and meant to be fitted to the Williams then?

Thanks for the info guys - but I'm curious now as to why these were fitted to the lower performance 16v and not the Williams??

Just didn't fit the wishbones which were nicked off the 19 16v.

Turbine wheels didnt provide very good air flow to the brakes i believe, so they added the plastic things to help.
