    Any good motor factor supplying the make you choose. There are fake pads around on the net though, so take care on line.

    Members have different preferences, but personally I use Pagid/Hella pads all-round. The rear Pagid number is T1209.
    More background on different pads here:

    Consider replacing the saddle plates and guide/retention pins too:
    Lotus Elise version, used on the fronts on the Lotus, rears on our cars of course. Not expensive (that price is for one wheel, though) :

    Also Nick at Austin Garages (member 'X13#18') does a complete set of plates/pins/pads, using original MGR pads, SFP000380.

    Also look at his description and the photos in that advert, explaining right and wrong pad shapes.
