    Does anyone know where I can get some of these? The current ones seem to be made of cheese and I have rounded off the allen screw heads.

    I’ve found the bolt kits online at around £18 but I don’t need the whole shebang just the pad bolt.

    Cheers.

    I didn’t bother replacing them. Will I die? I do hope not – i’ll miss the Olympics.

    So there’s nothing holding your pads in place other than their shape, the spring and the disc?

    Of all the options mentioned this is the one I’m least likely to take!

    Buy a one eighth split pin. I got mine at a car accessories shop. Its the same thickness as the original bolt and i got a pack for 99p.Job done .

    Hopefully you mean the little circlips not the bolts.

    My bolts are fine on my RX after almost 2 years and several pad changes – the key is using a decent tool to undo them. Cheap tools round bolts.
