Really, for 14 €uros why bother shopping around especially when it's a safety item like brakes. Just get them now and have peace of mind.

cheers weasel, is the installing difficult or do they just plug in? in response to Re File bought them locally as the cost to ship here was ridiculous

you are all right, but for a silly piece of metal it is a bit steep in price.....I have bought them,no pressure as i can get round town using other means for now

What you are paying for is not just the intrinsic value of the item, it's the privilege of having it available to you when you need it.

Installation is simple, it just snaps in with a bit of persuasion.

They are easy to install and should be replaced periodically anyway.
