Had a set one my car when i first got it,did a so called mate a temporary swap for 2ltr ones so i could get my 14s on and he said he scrapped them with his car,unlikely story but anyway,got a set of calipers and carriers of my dads spare calibra again and apart from geting a new set of discs and have an engineering company drill out 4x100 are there no 4 stud v6 disc conversions anymore? remember lmf used to do one but is now discontinued? anyone know of anywhere else?

I had 280 meriva discs with 288 vectra calipers.

Make sure you get 4 stud ones and not 5 stud. And not all 4 stud merivas are 280, some are 260.
