Evora Handbrake Shoes.....

[Reindeer]

Has anyone managed to find these?

Its not clear on Deroure which part they are and if they are the ones I think on there.......then they have the usual lotus tax bringing them to £100 plus. Which is crazy for handbrake shoes.

Anyone found another option?

Thanks all

It looks like the shoes aren't available individually, but as an entire assembly, minus the backplate. 

You could probably take a set of shoes to an auto parts store and see if they could match it up with another application based on size and holes.

Not sure why hand brake shoes would wear out unless you've been doing handbrake turns

[Reindeer]

I wish it was that......

I changed the brake lines, calipers, discs and pads......At the end I overadjusted the handbrake shoes......

Which decided to stick on whilst going round the M25, scorch the disc, burn off the disc paint and turn the original shoes into a charred mess.

Lesson. Don't adjust your handbrake shoes too tight!

Try asking ES Motorsports. They have probably taken plenty off old Evoras. 

(You’ll need to contact them directly. Don’t rely on their eBay listings to be the full list of their available parts).

Thanks Bravo.

As a gamble late last night.....I've ordered these...

Will let everyone know!

Good find! Seems like the cross-reference checks out on their website.

Do update please, I need these too so would be interested if I can get cheaper options

[Reindeer]

Ladies and Gents.....we have a winner!

Peugeot 406 handbrake shoes are indeed correct fitment for the Evora NA and S......Not sure about the 400.

All fitted today, no dramas.

£16 delivered compared to £110 from Lotus

Nice find. Just ordered some here in France, just in case.

Great find 😎

According to Deroure, the Lotus parts number for the parking brake assembly (B132J0145F) is the same for original and 400 series cars, so these should be good for all Evoras.

Stupid question @Reindeer do I need to order one box or two to do both sides?
