I have mtec 190s on mine John with (I think) mintex pads, they work a treat, so much so when driving one of the others it makes the braking seem very poor.

Running EBC grooved and dimpled rotors with red stuff pads on my 190. I am happy with their performance.
I happened to have a can of silver VHT paint on hand so thats what the calipers got.
The one time electrical issues on my ZT seem to have stopped which is reassuring. Some water must have got somewhere it shouldnt have as the gremlins were running wild. In the last week I had a false sidelight out warning, the bootlid catch acted up once, and the fuel guage reading wrong-once! No matter as the issues seem to have stopped. Fingers crossed!

Default cruise control

Fitted the last couple of bits and pieces for my cruise control (vacuum actuator and steering wheel controls). I couldn't get hold of the vacuum pipe and so used 4.5mm ID vacuum hose (thanks to the Land Rover forum for the tip).
I then used the TOAF software to get it all up and running - all in all, a successful day (compared with the usual wrestling with rust-seized bolts)
