They are Corvette brake pads...... but I also understand you can take certain types of Commodore pads and laith them down and attach some type of retainers or as one owner suggested.. weld on the retainer wings then file them down... (Serious problem there.... why would you EVER own a Corvette and be that tight ... ;37 )


Part # D216 for Fronts $65 + gst on www.usgmsp.com  or call if wanted on 02 4257 1230

I had Commodore pads on the back of my '86 at one stage and they fitted on OK without any mods, but the shape of the pad is different (a local brake place fitted them because they were in stock).
Genuine Corvette pads are not really any more expensive, so I'd just get the proper ones.
