Brake pad tensioner parts... where to get?
The brake tensioner on my brake pads in the rear are no longer there, and i need to get replacements. i'm referring to the thin, bent metal piece that goes over the pads and is held on by the pins that go through both pad eyes.
Can these be replaced at a local car parts store? Or are they porsche specific parts. I dont want to spend more than a few dollars for these if possible, does anyone have any laying around used or new? otherwise where can i get them. I saw the partwerks guy on ebay selling the pins and those metal pieces for like 60 bucks.. but he always overcharges and all i need is two of those spring plate pieces.
thanks

i just looked all over and i really can't find a picture. this weekend i could take a picture.. but its the piece that when you take out the two pins that hold the brake pads in, pops out. it just sits on top of teh pads, i guess holding them in tighter. can anyone give me any help here? its tough to explain , its just two peices of thin metal, riveted together in like a "+" but the two longer sides are bent so that you have to push down on the metal for the pins to go in on top of it.. securing it down.
Thanks.. let me know if you need more description.

Went and looked for them I have a can of screws and misc. pieces from 944s that weighs about 18lbs. Here is what I think you are looking for they are not broken but really dirty. If this is it then let me know if not then I don't have what you are looking for.
