Marina pads, anti-rattle clip

[peter.oldland]

Does anybody know where I can get hold of 4 of the wire anti-rattle clips that fit over the (Marina) front pads/retaining pins?

No but when I bought new pads, with them I got new anti-sqeal shims that had the spring clips built in.

Thanks Don, what make pads did you get? I've got some Greenstuffs on order so maybe I'll be luckier than I was with the last set (no clips or shims).

The green stuff pads don't come with shims but do help with braking capabilities

Thanks Guys,
The Greenstuff pads are much better than the old (Italian) hard pads that were on the car but as Stefan said, don't come with the clips. A coating of CopperGrease seems to have sorted the squeal, I'll look out for clips on a specialist stand at Newark (first visit, so I don't know what the make-up of stands is).
See you there!
