    Ferodo brakes DS 2500

    Hey guys,
    I have the porsche 996 brake upgrade on the front of my s2. (also fits porsche boxster s)
    I wanted to upgrade my brake pads, I was currently using EBC red stuff pads.
    I was told to get ferodo DS 2500 pads which are more track focused but also very good cold.
    I ordered them in, but they pad shape is different at the top and I'm worried they wont fit correctly.

    I can find these versions in Brembo and EBC, but not ferodo.
    Any ideas guys? pics attached and the list of vehicles it matches is here:
    PORSCHE 911 (996) Carrera - Front

    Ok, so ive found 2x tutorials online for fitting brake pads to the 4pot porsche brake upgrade. Each one with different looking pads. Aparantly, they both seem to fit! According to this video, my new pads will fit. Yey! Result! Will test the 2500 ferodos, heard good things, but they arent r90 accepted. But i read thats because they are too effective..

    Unless anyone has any extra info?

    Heres youtube link of fitting the style of pad i recieved:
