Front Brake Pad Clips

[Handymandbq]

I have a 2009 RS SE5. I'm trying to do a front brake job using some non-OEM brake pads. While taking off the old brake pads I busted the little clips that go on the back of them. Does any one know where I can get just these clips for a reasonable price. My local dealer says he can get me the clip and a bleeder screw for $21 a piece, and I. We'd four of the clips. Plus. He would have to order them.

Shockingly, that is the price you have to pay. The rear is just as bad, so be extra careful when you swap out pads using aftermarket ones - they do not come with new clips.

If you use oem pads, you get new clips + new pads. So all you riders that swap out your pads with oem ones, save the old spring clips as you can easily sell them for $10 each. they can be posted for one 1st class postage stamp.

What a rip off you cannot get these clips unless you buy a set of oem pads!
