- Best way to get the pistons out without having a compressor? (without ruining them!)
- Best way to stop brake fluid peeing all over the place as i can't clamp braided lines? I've read about putting clingfilm over the reservoir top but not sure if it works.
Thinking of doing it myself as I can get the seal kit cheap and i'm sure it can't be that difficult!

I'll have a closer look this weekend and decide whether discs/pads are needed at the same time or not. |
Getting the pistons out isn't a problem, it's getting them back in square with new seals that is.......I remember doing this years ago on a Ford and it took me forever and a day to get the pistons back in.
