Default Brembo question

A friend of mine had his Brembo calipers refurbished a little while and is very happy witht he results. The only problem is the pins and bracket that hold the pads in have been lost/misplaced etc...

The calipers are from a 406 V6, but we think they are the same as the Focus RS and the Fiat Coupe?

Ford/Peugeot dealers want £89.47+VAT Which as usual is a fucking rip off.

Question is, does anyone know a more realistically priced place to get the pins and brackets from?

Cheers

I emailed Brembo in the past and compained that my pins and clips were rusting, and they posted me some free of charge.

Seat wanted £80 for them

What a rip off!

I replaced the pads on my Ferrari and they supplied brand new pins and brackets with them!

If you get stuck I think I've still got the old one's somewhere, you can have them.
