I think he's tried to sort sliders/pins last couple of years I've brought it in and it fixes it for a bit but he's saying it's finally had it. I trust him, so will go for it.
The various ebay calipers appear to claim to be Lucas, SAS and (IIRC) TKW.
Seem to recall reading somewhere that the actual original ones Skoda use are Lucas?
One of the rear calipers on my Mk1 Octavia VRS is seized. If I buy this to replace it with, how fiery and explosive will my death be?

Only problem is that it's not green, but I reckon I can put up with that compared to £80 for a painted OEM ebay one or £200 for the proper Skoda UK one, as long as it's not a terrible idea?
