The FAQ is somewhat unclear on the front brake parts. I had some new parts from the dealer and got a little confused before sorting things out.
Subject is a 93 945 with Girling front calipers, without ABS.
The FAQ says 287mm rotors for my car which is wrong, should be 280mm.

Thickness is correct, 26mm. Volvo part number for this rotor is 31262209







The brake pad description for this setup is also not correct in the FAQ.
The REPCO 1198 style is good for this caliper, not 508 as stated in the FAQ.
Note that there are at least two different Volvo part numbers for the pads;
31261183 old style wih a big lump of friction material, stamped with number 31261176 on the backside.

Here are some picture of the old style pads.







31302996 is current style, chamfered sides and a groove in the middle. Stamped with number 31317312 on the backside.

Here are some pictures of the new style pads.
