the bits shaped like brake pads that Daimo is talking about are on the spacer that I removed form the car, no need to grind them off if your replacing the whole spacer.? | |

THEYRE NOT WELDS JUST BITS OF METAL. GRIND THEM OFF SO THE SURFACE IS FLAT | |

yeah thats what was on the corsa spacers, and thats what made the difference to the width at the rear. | |

no, like 8 brake pad shape welds which had been skimmed down on the face of the corsa spacer plate in a circle which the hub used to sit onto | |

there seems to be lots of different astra hubs and carriers, mine was wider than my corsa carrier so it needed widening, if yours dont then that should save you some work :) | |
