Spring holding the brake pad wear sensor to brake pad

Lost that little spring that holds the brake pad wear sensor wire to the brake pad and it looks like it's not a separate part on realoem! Can anyone confirm?

Correct, the tiny spring is not available separately.

Get a new sensor (VDO type), about $10.

Bummer. Thank you! I'm about to turn the garage upside down!

I always keep the old ones when I replace them - for just such a time as this! ;)

But yeah, finding where I stored it later on….? :confused:
