Hi all, I’m envisaging my front AP calipers could do with refreshing before she goes back on the road after 10 years off!

As it’s an early mk1, I think it has Cerbera calipers and discs (~280mm) fitted. I’ve tried Powers but they can’t get hold of the seals to rebuild them. Does anyone know where I might be able to source seals or a rebuild kit from?

I got mine from Auto Performance Products a couple of years ago.

I'll be doing a refurb on my calipers soon, same as yours, AP CP5200.

Seems that circa £45 per caliper is the going rate for the seals, this is the kit, CP4519-JK:

Wow, mine were half that. That's the same kit as I used for my 6 bolt calipers, but I don't know if the piston size varies between the 4 and 6 bolt, so maybe worth checking.
