i wouldnt do that.. just fork up like 20 bux. its not that expensive for one front pad.

the rear and front pads are totally a different size. i dont think it would be very safe.

no, you can't do that. If you look at a front pad, next to a rear pad, you will see that the front pad is much larger. The rear pad wouln't fit in the caliper.

Like stated above, a set of front pads from advance auto, is like $20.

Confirming....no you cannot. This isn't really possible, and if you did get it in there, it is definitely not safe.

If you're going through the trouble of actually removing the caliper brace/pad, you might as well drive to your local auto parts store and get universal Honda pads. As said previously, they are VERY cheap.
