Have just purchased bosch front brake pads and was looking to fit these over the weekend. Had looked online and thought I would be able to do it easily enough but after opening the box I have two queries:-
1. On the back of two of the pads there is a white strip that says "remove to expose adhesive" What is this for?? I note that there are two copper-like circular clips in the box which I was not expecting - I am wondering if these are for another vehicle(s) and a meant to stick to the back of the two brake pads. If so, I am wondering what to do with the adhesive strips if I am not using the circular clips??
2. On the other two pads they both have wires for wear indicators but I understand that the 2006 1.4 GP only has one clip for a wear indicator (not two) i.e on one wheel only. What should I do with the wire/clip that is not being used??
All advice welcome. Many thanks.
