Default S2 RST Calipers

Im running S2 brakes on my Orion and recently had the passenger side caliper blow a seal.

I bought a replacement from my local factors, but when I got it home its got a slight difference. All the bolt holes and piston is the same, its just this end:




Is that a true S2 caliper??

Thanks!

NO, not as ford fitted anyway, different as it is a pattern part, stil ok though and might be better as it would have any design upgrades built into it, if problems were found with oe ones.

Only asthetically different, its the same in terms on functionality although could be annoying come time to change the pads if you use a service kit, as the spring clips differ as you are aware!
