Fit pads yourself.

Piece of piss to do, buy the pads from Honda, £43 i think, get some high temp copper grease and youre sorted.

Jack car up, wheel off, undo caliper bolts, undo the fluid inlet slightly to release pressure, push piston back. Old pads out, new pads in. Remove sliders from caliper, grease and put back.grease the back of the pads, put caliper back down, screw on. Pump break to release air within the line and tighten release valve. Repeat final step until brake feels solid.
