Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

As long as the ones you have are not seized, its an easy enough job to do them yourself. Only slightly tricky bit is getting the seal retainer rings to sit in the counterbore squarely. However, I have to say that the price of the rebuild kits are more than you think, and by the time you have bought new caliper pistons (if needed) you may as well buy a refurbed unit. As Alex points out, any decent motor factor will supply, or most of the Mini spares outfits do them exchange.
