Front brake discs and pads

[scottpeters90]

Hi all lond time no talk!
My 2.0 tourer is in for a service today and it needs front pads and discs, was thinking of doing them myself! can anyone recomend any?
Honda want £250 fitted, but i know i can pick up genuine ones cheaper and fit them myself but is anyone using any other brands and are they any good?
cheers

There are two flyers on this page, I used EBC, NO COMPLAINTS, just the bog standard ones no grooves no green stuff. If your names Stig then I cannot help you.

I bought front & rear pads & discs for my 2.2 iCDTi Tourer from www.camskill.co.uk for £159.80 inc delivery & VAT. I have a friend who fitted them for £35/hour and it took 2 hours for the whole lot. Total cost less that just the fronts from Honda!
