Guy on ebay seems to think I need a different caliper if i have 5 speed than if i have  6 speed.
I am pretty sure this is not the case.
When did the 6 speed become a standard issue in the 2?

The guy must be meaning pre and post facelift as that is when I believe we went from 5 speed to 6 speed, however as mark says they are interchangeable.

since they are the same parts, just buy the cheap ones,

is it just one caliper your after or a whole set Russ?

my brakes are fine Mark, I was trying to work out why the gearbox affected the calipers, which if course it doesnt!
