    nevermind - they are.

    Question though - I will need extra fluid after I change out these pads, correct? and it can only be the Girling stuff? thanks a lot

      You can also use Castrol GTLMA as well. Grab yourself a couple of pints and flush the system out while you're at it. Brake fluid absorbs water and gets pretty nasty after a few years. Keep fresh fluid in there and your master and wheel cylinder will last much longer.

            I have not been able to find either brand of compatible brake fluid locally.
