That is indeed a good find. One question though, what UK based supplier could we buy these items from now that we know the part numbers for the guide pin kits?
Well hopefully any UK motor factor can get them by using ATE part numbers.
The thing I cannot find is rear caliper repair kits - not just the piston seal and dust cap, but all the gubbins for rejuvinatng the orrible handbrake. Dunno why I cannot find these yet.

I think you can buy the internal bits & bobs from biggred.co.uk, they sell most of their stuff through their ebay shop. I emailed them before with the part numbers for the calipers:
"Rear single Piston, 38mm. 38 is cast into the caliper for Audi with the following part numbers 853 615 423 A & 853 615 424 A"
To which they responded:
"If you type 270487160915 (ebay listing number) you will find the rear kit BR203816
Regards John / Sarah Bigg Red Ltd Tel 01905 428793 Open Mon/Fri 10.30-6.30"
Please do double check what you're getting in that price as i did not purchase yet. They are friendly and helpful in any case. HTH
Funny enough - those 'bigred' folk came up on a search and I could see lots of Girling applications so this seems like a good path - I hadn't tried to contact them yet so that is encouraging.
Well I spoke to Euro car parts head office today, and they have never sold these kits. So they are having to contact ATE direct in Germany to see if it's worth them supplying them
