Pads and Rotors 200 1983

Hi all,

I'm looking to replace both sets of pads and discs/rotors on my '83 200 sedan. The more I look into it though, the more different variables there seem to be such as drilled vs slotted discs, type of caliper (if that matters), and the use of drums in the rear on some models, which i assume would preclude use of discs.

As an aside i already tried handling it through my local Napa; the clerk there wanted to charge me $350 which seemed quite high even after the service charge.

I'm assuming others have done brake jobs on theirs before; can someone give me a rundown on the type and specs of what they used, as well as maybe which brands to avoid?

Thanks a bunch,
Aidan
