Any one suggest the best place for AM recommended pads for the rear, and how much with all wires sensors etc?

Eurocarparts, don't forget to put in the discount code shown on the homepage for your 35% discount.

Fronts are exactly the same process although the sensor wire is a little fiddly.

Just rec'd pads from Eurocarparts, and there is only one sensor kit.

On querying this, I was told that most cars only use one as even wear on both wheels.

Does anyone know if this is correct?

I made the same mistake when I bought mine, you need two of them

And there are two sensors on the rears, not just fronts?

Probably silly question, but the workshop manual is a little vague on this
