I have used them as well. Slow though. They'll sit on the order for a week before they can be bothered to send it.

I just had a search on that site and only 1 disc shows up, are these discs sided or does 1 disc fit either side?

I got my rear discs and pads from Euro Car Parts. The misses found an online voucher code for them for 35% off. Not sure if its still active but for rear discs and pads it was around £800 down to £530 after the discount. From memory the code was CLEAR55 got to be worth a try.

Do you know if they're the same compound as the cheap/dangerous pagid pads ECP sell?

No idea mate. Hadn 't heard of that.

They're the same price as the Pagid pads on the site.

ECP used to sell Paid pads that were a really poor compound. Have a quick search on here.

Textar are Pagid, same company. They may be same compound as the oem Pagid, but I doubt it from ECP.

Textar, Pagid, Mintex. It's all made by the same people. Probably with the same floor sweepings.
