The wire/spring-steel pad retainers do not seem to have a way of being used
with these Audi "large" pads.

Bob,

I spoke to Sonny who is the person who worked on development on this kit at
Overland. He said he has no problems fitting the pad retainers and actually
had the brakes installed in his own Vanagon and another in his wife's van.
After hearing this, I went to my local Overland dealer to to check out these
pad retainers in person. They seemed odd shaped until I looked to see how
they are installed on a nearby late model Jetta. I copied the install and
BOOM! I got retainers. I put one end of the retainer in to the hole on
the side of the caliper first, then pressed the opposite tip into place.

For those who might want these, my dealer Bruce says he has three more on
hand and asked if I can take them to SdM for him. $575 no sales tax, no
shipping. If you want to pay him by credit card, pmail me and I will put you
in touch with him. I have no financial interest in this. Just thought some
of you might save a few bucks this way.

Regards,
