Brake Sensors
I am replacing my stock brake pads on my 1987 911 with Pagids and they dont have any provisions for the brakes sensors. What should I do? Thanks in advance for your answers!

Your brake sensors are not really needed, unless you typically wear your pads down to the backing plate. Most Porsche owners pay a lot of attention to their brakes, so the warning sensor is really not needed.
Seriously, you can tie-wrap your brake sensor wires to the brake lines adjacent to your brake calipers. Do not remove the actual sensors on the ends of the sensor wires; doing this will create an "open" circuit and trick the system into thinking you have worn down your pads (i.e. warning light will stay ON).
