Being in need of new front brake pads I wonder which are the right ones?
I own a 2002 4.0 Tuscan Mk1 with the 304 mm discs and now wonder if it is EBC part
  1. DP3002C size 132 x 54 x 17 mm or
  2. DP3036C size 128 x 81 x 16 mm?
Any ideas somebody?

Yours should be the second ones, ie the later calipers, I think. Have your existing pads got the 'ears' on the top edge that stick out of the slot in the caliper?

Whilst on this subject, can someone identify my brake pads?

It's a 2000 car. Are they the 'ears' you can mention above?
