Does anyone know whether it's possible to buy rears that aren't drilled?

RG are selling the AP version and a half price copy, but both are drilled

Powers are also selling the AP version

Are there any other sources for the rear discs?

Does anyone have any used discs they would like to sell?

I bought some, still unused, boxed and wrapped, but want to keep them for exactly this reason.
Whats wrong with the drilled ones from TVR Parts? Cracking?

Have a pair of used rear discs taking up space in the garage. They are straight and un scored and measure up at 29.5mm in thickness. Light surface rust on faces, pitting on drum surface which may require skimming.

Hi Paul wavey

Dunno if it may be too old to help

BUT

Here's my thread of when I had to replace my discs.

Mad Mark (RIP) sourced someone who made him up some if I recall correctly.

To answer part of my own question, I was cleaning my front brakes yesterday due to squealing and found most of the holes clogged with brake dust...
