So far I have purchased new pad spreader springs for front calipers (914-4 late), and both are too narrow. Heres the one I took off, and one of the replacements. The original has a wingspan of about 54 mm, and both new springs only about 45 mm.
Both vendors sold these as part number 901 351 916 16, supposedly for late calipers. Does anyone know of a source for the correct springs? Attached thumbnail(s)
