Hi Guys, I've searched everywhere but can't seem to find any dimensions on any of the electric handbrake Passat calipers, does anybody know of any handbrake calipers from a newer vehicle that will fit directly in place of the cupra r rear caliper with vented disc?

I'm sure some people will ask why I would want to - why not, I'm changing the calipers so have the option to do it.

Any info much appreciated.

Andy

It's not something i can ever remember anyone doing tbh. I think you would probably be the first, as such i'm not sure anyone would be able to help, but i'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Me neither, never heard of any one doing even just wanting an electric handbrake conversion on a mk1 Leon.

Don’t think it will work as you need to plug the car into a code reading machine to tell the ecu to wind the pistons in so you can change the pads or the discs and pads even then you still need to sometimes push them back
