Cheers for reply mate. I did them this week. Just used 12mm x 40mm bolts and washers in the end mate. Had some old discs that a mate have me n took it out last night and as I braked the steering shook really bad so take it discs are warped! So just bought some new ones this morning. But even though there warped and new pads haven't bed in yet they feel 10 times better than my cossie 4 pots I had on before hand. Brakes a lot shaper already. So well happy with them
