I bought these for my 2003 Honda Civic. They are almost the same as the original shoes but have a pre-installed post instead of a hole for a self-adjusting mechanism. Which would be nice, except that the engine has its own post. So if I was desperate I could probably convert them to usability, but I guess I'll just order them elsewhere instead. It's probably just a problem with the installation guide and other than that they seem to be of decent quality but still useless to me.
