I just installed new D90 calipers, rotors and pads on the front of my D1. Unfortunately - I have just realized that the retainer pins for the brake pads do not cross over from the D1 calipers to the D90 calipers and the brake pads did not come with new pins. Anyone solve this? Going to NAPA tomorrow and see of there is a generic version - they just need to be another 1/4 to 1/2 inch to get the cotter pin in. Mine don't even show the hole - too short.

I found this on the lucky 8 site:

Which says the pins are the same for both vehicles. Anyone who has made this conversion please chime in - maybe my calipers are not standard?
