- Save the old (original) clips. They work and are a cinch to install. Or pick up new clips (thin ones like the originals) at the hardware store. I have quite a pile of those E clips mounting up becaus

- When I had standard brakes on the rear I used conventional circlips which I installed in seconds with circlip pliers. There is some minor technical reason why the E clip must be used instead instead
