With a mecan calliper? Do they fit under 18" wheels? or are you limited to 19"?

Fitted led bulbs in my fogs, replaced the odd flappy fog light itself and decided I need a new nsf fog due to pebbledash Image
Seem through the camera there’s a bit of flicker but it’s not visible by eye

New bumper from GTi Kris, painted, wrapped and fitted.
Same as the previous one but the old one had terrible fitment.
Super happy with the fitment of this one. Absolutely spot on.
Cherry on the cake is the new hybrid honeycomb grill (also from Kris) but I'll be honest needed ALOT of work until I was happy with it.
Bodyshop did a great job with it, smooth as glass now.
Completely changes the front end and adds a touch more "unique-ness" to the van, while matching the honeycomb in the bumper ImageImageImageImageImage

Brake job. Rear pads and rotors.

Right hand side caliper was completely spent. Boot was stuck to the piston and tore upon rewinding. Such a shame as everything had been going smooth up to that point. Even got the super seized caliper bracket bolts out. Can't be arsed doing a piston repair, so might as well just replace the entire thing. I'm having a hard time sorting out the PR-codes and thus finding the correct caliper. If you have any ideas which PR code is fitting for my caddy (2012, 75kW / 102bhp, 1.6tdi), please let me know.
I've put a 272x10mm rotor on it, and matched it with the appropriate pads (2K5698451) which are identical to the old ones.

These point me to the 1ZA pr code.
