Pinch the marea ones anyway, but you will need new ones making up.

i should be getting a set of mounts this weekend,ill get them drawn up then sent off to get cut out
Well today i spend about 3 hrs ish fitting the new rear discs . worked out really well apart from snapping the end off a hex key ... even got misses to help bleed the brakes :worship:.
took the car for a 20 mile drive after i tested to make sure wheels wouldnt fall off lol pads started to bed in to the discs and the hand brake works better then my drums ever did even though i havent finished adjusting it yet
Here is some eye candy for ya ..

It's far better than my French
I used the same brake lines that are on the front as the fitment is the same . I will be upgrading to braded hoses as soon as i have the money and figure out where to get them

Somewhere on here someone has posted the cad drawings for the adaptors. I can't see you being able to modify the Marea ones, but they do, at least, give you the bolt spacings for the calipers.
PM Brooky and see how far down the production line they are?
