Im sure ive seen a thread about this before but cannot seem to find it. I bought a set of vented discs for the front of my 206 but my car has solid discs, is it possible to straight swap them or are the calipers different for vented discs? Thanks!

Calipers are wider as the discs are thicker.

Okay thanks Edward! Trip to upullit (scrappy) it is next week then to get a couple calipers then, only 8 quid a piece plus fitting, I don't quite trust myself to bleed the brakes haha. Thanks trick but already have a set of brand new discs so just need to pick up the calipers. Cheers
