bolts with brake pads?

[Paulg31]

Hi all,

I'm planning on replacing some front brake pads on a Peugeot 107 tomorrow. Never done it before but it doesn't look too complicated. I brought some pagid brake pads. Inside the books there's the 4 pads like I expected by there's also two bolts? What are these bolts for? I've got the Haynes manual for the car and it doesn't mention changing any bolts.

Any help much appreciated! Any tips too!

Cheers,
Paul

All par for the course, Paul......use the two new bolts and two of the old. The new bolts have a locking compound on their threads.
Smear some Coppaslip grease on the back of the new pads to prevent any squeal.

Cheers. I did that and it all went well. Had a little road test after and they seem to all be fine.
