A wee tickle with the angle grinder and a bit of copper grease;) Jimny, Citroen C4 Peugeot 307 all the same with non manufacturer pads.

Seems to be down to the manufacturer of the replacement pads. A couple of years ago I found EBC pads too tight to fit and had to file the paint off the tabs and apply copper grease to fit, then when I recently replaced with brembo pads they went straight in with no bother.

Thanks for all your help, decided to install the Blue print pads, as the look better, and sanded paint off, cheers.
