HI.
I just did the rear brakes on my 68 Sprite. I used new external circlips and
the old thin washers I saved when the old cylinders were removed.
Very simple to install if you have snap ring pliers. Needle nose pliers
would probably work too.
The new cylinders had a paper gasket that I used as well, although I doubt
they have much usefulness.I took one look at the clips that came with the
new cylinders and knew they would be a pain to install, so I tossed them.

Hope this helps,
J
