Default caliper carriers for 302mm disc conversion

Does anyone have a set of the larger caliper carriers so I can carry out the 302mm disc conversion for my T5

IIRC less than £50 new from Rufe as an exchange item for a pair of 280mm carriers.

Hi Charlotte I have just seen your message. I will get you the full details when I am in work in the morning but for the record they are currently £37.22 including vat for the pair, (plus postage).

They are sold on an exchange basis meaning I will require your old standard carriers back. If any one else ever wants an order reference number to order these from us please follow the link in my banner below.

Many thanks,

Simon

I remember when the 850 was current these brackets were priced at over £100 obviuosly to prevent brake convertions taking place ..

Not always needed, I converted one of my T5's and I bought the longer hoses, the ones that where already on the car were the same length.
