I meant for the caliper bolts. I don't think they stock Ferodo pads other than the 2500 (that's what I'm running). Pricing on those 1.11's is soooo good that it does make me wonder (is there tax/duty added?).

I personally know a great shop that always changes the pads on these cars by removing the bolts you aren't meant to use. And also there no problems.

I am going to do a pad change soon and will buy bolts at FCP euro and then just keep returning them, thats a good idea. And yeah FCP euro does not have any track pads, they only carry 2500 |

If running stock suspension and tires no more aggressive than 200TW, then DS1.11 in front and DS2500 in the rear (even on a square tire setup) is a sweet spot. If your setup is more optimized for mechanical and tire grip, then you might consider DSUNO or DS3.12 in front and DS1.11 or DS2500 in the rear. It's surprising how difficult it is to underbrake the rear. Stock pads in the rear can be run with an aggressive front pad without much issue, especially with streetable tires and stock suspension.

When I changed my front pads on the M2C I don't remember seeing more than one set of bolts that could be removed (maybe I'm just not remembering it). There were two bolts that screwed the caliper on which faced towards the inside of the wheel well. Were those the "right" bolts or the "wrong" bolts?

Ah, ok. I didn't even see two bolts on the top. Something to look for next time!

Demon Tweeks has awesome pricing on Ferodos. I bought DS2500 and DS1.11 for my M2C and my Evora. It’s a UK shop. They sell out quick, but are constantly getting new inventory, so it’s not much of a wait, especially considering they’re international and at least a hundred bucks cheaper than everywhere else.

If you scroll down thru those pics to the side views, you can see these 2 black Allen heads that are the connections (behind the pad with "made in italy"). When it is on the car, it looks much more intuitive to remove those.

Thanks, this helped a lot. I never even noticed those two black allen heads.
