I think it was pvr that mentioned these in another thread - anyone got any sources/links to where I could pick some up?

No idea ... but I am fitting them on saturday so will let you know afterwards. Will also take some pictures whilst doing that.

Just a question on that - I assume as the clutch and the brakes use the same reservoir (even though it is split ) - I need to bleed both the clutch and the brakes in order to replace the brake fluid with the higher spec one?
Current:
911-50 Black - unique spec
X5M - 575 hp of fun in a V8
Abarth 595 Comp.
Golf Clipper - collectors item
Z4 3.0si Black Sapphire
VW ID.3

Previous:
Z4M Silver Grey - non flimper spec (gone to Bing)
Z4 3.0 Toledo
