Handbrake pads DB9/Vantage

[Loose_Cannon]

An advisory on a recent service was "cracked handbrake pads" which I intend to replace along with the rear brake pads myself.

Checking ebay these TRW equivalents came up for a the princely sum of a tenner, compared to £50/60 plus elsewhere. Too good to be true? I haven't had the old ones out yet to check the dimesnions etc but they appear the same as the ones others are selling for 80 quid....

If you want to play it safe and still save a few bucks (er, quid), the handbrake pads are the same as used on a Jag S-Type.

Thanks for the info Rich, presumably there's just one type of S Type hand brake pads?
