Rear brakes pad holder

[fab]

What would you call the part that the pads on the rear sit into? I'm missing the little black block that has/had a little clip attaching it to the holder. Is it important?

[sideways danny]

are you talking about the fitting kit?

Think he means this?

X marks the spot where I'm taking about the holder.
And the red block area there is/was a black piece that was pushed up against the pad that gets screwed in. Thats the part I'm missing from one of the holders.
Looks like you dont have them on yours wobba? But it looks like it keeps the pad from touching the wall of the holder.

You mean the tab on the back of the pad itself? Only need one on each side with a tab. Make sure you've not done the usual mistake of putting two with the tab on one side already.

See the piston? See the tab that's not located correctly in the above pic? That tab needs to slot into the gap on the piston. Dont need it on the outer pad. Outer pad should have screw holes in so you can secure it with the two supplied torx screws to the calliper itself.

not the lead weight bit?

Yep the lead weight bit. do they serve an important purpose?
I'm ok with the tab bit wobba, got them in correctly to the piston

I think its an anti rattle shim kind of thing, apparantly does nothing, but i refit because i have them, if they drop off i wouldnt bother sourcing more
