Can any help me find where I can purchase just the small rubber gaiters for my front bendix brake calipers, the pistons are fine and working ok but the gaiters are perished. I tried the local Citreon dealership but they only sell the whole piston kit for £61 a side, that unbelieveable when I just need the tiny gaiters.

Buying the whole calipers would be a lot cheaper and easier matey :)

Surely thats going to be even more expensive, even if I went to a breakers there's no gaurantee thats the gaiters won't split a week later. They are only a 2cm wide & 3cm long piece of rubber, surely someone will know where you can buy these, replacing them will take about an 1/2 hour a side if I can get them.

Just wanted to add its the gaiters behind the caliper I am looking for, they cover the metal pistons that allows the whole caliper unit to move back and forth, so too allow even wear of the pads, its not the piston inside, in case thats is causing confusion.
Pleas does anyone know eher to get these from.
