Brake caliper - torx or alan

[Kerry201pro]

Guys, new to these boards. Ina craunch and was wondering what size torx or alan head to remove pads from caliper. Garage is very dark and cant really tell if it's torx or not.... Maybe T50 or larger??? Many thanks

Don't u thing it would be easier to get a flashlight and cheak it out for yourself.... why would you be changing the pads in the dark....? Sorry, I can't remember it's been some time since I did any brake work....

Thanks! That is what I was looking for. Bulb was out in my drop light and that side of garage is real dark. Has anyone got any thougts on ceramic vs. semi metalic pads? THanks again Kerry

Ceramic provide better braking ability and are quieter, but cost quite a bit more. It's really up to you - how much weight your brakes stop and how much you want to spend.
