I just rang auto-pro to recheck my numbers, they don't have genuine Ford pads but do have Bendix
$69.95 front and $69.95 for rear.......so $140 for the set or thereabouts......however these are not the genuine replacement, I would hazard a guess that genuine would be dearer again as shown above

A couple of good comments were "I've thrown pads with more meat than those in the bin before. Who in their right mind would bid on them? " and "If you need to buy used pads you probably can't afford an fg." Comments like this aren't really supportive, nor thought put into situations that do arrise as I have pointed out.....So may I request you have a look back at the posts previous to mine and re-assess....

Guys, i supose buying used brake pads would be like buying a used car. If they are roadworthy they would be ok, buying a s/hand car then replace everything in it so it is new again i dont think so. Anyway just my s/hand 20c worth. Cheers Neil.:
