I bought 2 front arm from a shop a couple years ago. My brakes are finally worn out, but I can't find the proper pads for them. Anyone can help me out?

My car is a 95 civic vx. However, I bought new arms from a shop since my old ones were going bad. The guy told me the arms were from ex. I haven't measured the rotors yet, but I did do a lot of research on what I have.

I have Nissin 15CL13VN brake calipers with L bracket #: 1L10 and R bracket #: 2S 12J. I have one side of Tokico 420m brake pad. The side with the shim with part number 7820, and the other side without the shim 7910. The other brake pad is HAMP. With shim, 9X07B1. Without, 9X05B1.

According to some online caliper catalogues, those calipers are for 88-89 crx hf; 84, 87-89 civic wag; honda fit; and 04-06 insights. I know calipers are interchangeable between certain cars and certain criteria, depending on the arm, rotor and length of brake lines.

I couldn't find any other information except foreign website, which I translated, and found nothing of importance. So if anyone can help me out with some knowledge, I would greatly appreciate it. Otherwise, I have to replace my whole caliper, pads, etc.

Really not understanding why you don't' take the pads to the auto parts store for comparison. If you know what calipers they might be then it shouldn't be that hard.

I took them 3 times, twice to Napa and once to Autozone. Cross referenced all the numbers and no match. I had them pull down all the according cars I listed up above and they weren't the same. Closest I got to were the OEM 92-95 civics but they were too big in length and width. So since I got the arms from a chop shop and they get their cars from over seas, I'm thinking this is a foreign product.

I googled the caliper part number.
Says its for a 2008-2014 honda jazz 1.4l vtec (honda fit)

Do your pads match the dimensions they listed?

In all honest you might wanna go to a junk yard for some parts

Also, according to the site I linked, the pads are the size of a 1992 civic vx pad.

I also found this pad for a civic thats even smaller

Bigger pads I assume are for 10in rotors. Smaller pads for 9in rotors

So the autoparts store had no pads for a Honda Fit?
