Would anybody happen to have a part no / code etc for the brake pads in a 2003 996 turbo, standard rears, the fronts are the larger 351 6 pots.
I want to fit some Performance friction pads and my supplier needs a reference, thanks in advance.

Also, possibly of interest for taller drivers, I am 6’2” and was not entirely comfortable with the seat right back, so today I removed the driver’s seat [sports hard backed type ] and drilled out the slider pressed stop on the inner runner and was able to get the seat back another 1” without problem.
I also left off the big forward slider helper spring. Now it’s much better with the steering wheel fully out I am comfortable, only slight issue is with my crash helmet on head room is a bit tight!

Merry Xmas.
