this is what you want
Yes indeed Marco they look bit much money though at the mo
For future though how do you get it through the MOT, doesn't it need a different handbreak mecahnism?

Thats what that smaller caliper is, its solely a handbrake, so it doesnt need a hydraulic one

Mat, can you not see the little Seperate AP Caliper??? thats the handbrake and it works on a cable and is therefore MOT friendly. Unlike my rear brakes
