JP Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 I need a few replacement bits but when I tell the bloke in the spares shops that "x" is for a Caterham, most reply with "a what? - never 'eard of it mate!" Need front pads (preferably tomorrow hence any spec will do) as they were covered in oil (see "sump disaster"). Which tin tops use the same pads? Also need a rear indicator bulb - same question again - which regular car do the bulbs correspond to? James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted December 16, 2001 Share Posted December 16, 2001 JP , A few more clues are required ...which front brakes do you have ? AP or standard ? . I'm sure one of us could then tell you . Otherwise - "cant help ya mate " Bulbs are pretty universal , simply remove the bulb that has failed , take it to halfords and match the mounting type and the wattage . dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFA Posted December 16, 2001 Share Posted December 16, 2001 Std pads are Triumph Spitfire I think. PAds for AP big brakes you will not get in a retail outlet.

JP Posted December 16, 2001 Author Share Posted December 16, 2001 I've got standard brakes (with exception of AP Racing m.cylinder). Cheers for the help so far (off out to Halfords now0. James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveK Posted December 16, 2001 Share Posted December 16, 2001 James Front pads are mintex part ref no MGB533 if you give any auto factor they should be able to supply a set of std pads although I would suggest at least an uprated version of m1144 if they have them. cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Posted December 17, 2001 Author Share Posted December 17, 2001 I've M1144's winging their way to me. Cheers, James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
