306 XSi (266MM) conversion HELP
Payday yesterday, off to scrappy tomorrow to start the process of getting some bigger brakes.
Gonna get the calipers and carriers at scrap yard and buy discs/pads new and clean up the calipers in the meantime.
Question - does anyone know what size the bolts holding the caliper on are, or whether they're torx etc?
Just trying to save myself taking my whole toolbox!
Thanks guysssss

make sure you take the pads as well so you can easily order replacement pads.

Caliper bolts are 19mm and should have threadlock on as well - I should take a breaker bar with you.
