Dad did a conversion to front brake disc.

pads are finishing soon and need to get spares.

i'm not sure what pads are these conversion from.

Please advice. Thanks.

Can't really tell without dimensions, but I agree with CMM above. Not seen eany with a wire for a warning light though. You could take them to a spares hop and look through the book, many will have full size drawings to compare.

haha not to sure why is there a wire for warning light thou.

thanks for your help. i found out its a ital pad due to the fillet bottom corners. as for marina pads, they have sharp corners.

no worries, found out that both marina and ital pads can be used.
but i guess i use ital, just to be on the safe side as i will be getting this from UK and will not want to waste postage cost :)

the wire is obviously a warning light which shows on the dash for low brake pads :D :D :D
