I understand the Hawk pads do not have the pad sensors. If I want to use them is their a recommendation on what to do about the sensor wire? I am not sure if the lamp will always be lit, etc. I'm a brake newb but would like to get these pads; had success with them on Datsun's. Thanks in adavnce you guys!

Just bundle and zip tie the wire. The light will not be on - it is triggered when the circuit is broken (the sensor rubs against the rotor and severs a wire.)

 

Eric, thanks for the lightning fast reply! very much appreciated. Safe motoring,

Steve

 

You can tie-wrap the sensor up out of the way as long as the brake pad light has not already come on. Once the light comes on it means the sensor has worn through the sensor wire and you must replace the sensor to get the light to go off or cut off the sensor and splice/solder the two wires together to complete the circuit.
