hi all

ive just been quoted £110 - £120 for some brake shoes and wheel cylinders fitted. which i think is a stupid price as the parts (shoes and cylinders)are between £24 - £40 max (nothing special) and im thinkin i need to learn how to do it myself so can anybody tell how its done or direct me to a guide that would be great

i need to do the front discs and pads aswell which i am prepared to do myself as some VAUXHALL CORSA VENTED MINTEX FRONT BRAKE DISCS AND PADS are only £48 delivered. can somebody confirm for a corsa sri 95 they take 236mm vented discs

any help would mean alot

Go to your nearest unipart or car trade shop and ask em for brake disks for a 1997 1.6 16v corsa sport these are vented and ask for pads to go with them they should be no more than £65 all in and do the job just fine unless you want bigger brakes then you need to change calipers aswell
