MBL,

    Thanks for the pics.  I will try to compare this weekend if I can get the car up on a lift.

Hi John,

I don't know a way to tell from the numbers, but if familiar with the pad pins & clips it's easy to tell, as there are differences between the Ate & Girling hardware.. 

Here are some pics to show what I mean..

Hope this helps.

Cheers,  MBL

Hi everyone,  

    I have a '92 300 SD and I am about to replace my front and rear brakes including the rotors, sensors, and pads.  My question is this..... how do I know whether I have Girling or ATE brake calipers on my car?  Is there a key in the VIN#?
