Yes they do, they are the same, just painted red!

Which side are you replacing?

 

[antwan64og]

Cupra R rear calipers are 256mm vented discs same as the S3.
Cupra rear calipers are 232mm solid discs same as the A3

The Seat Leon Cupra R rear caliper carriers do not fit an S3

Wrong offset

Calipers carrier designed for the rear torsion beam cars have a slightly different offset to the 4WD cars fitted with hybrid double wishbones

You need a 256mm caliper carrier from a 4WD platform, eg S3, R32, TT, Leon4K

Lots of places sell them, phone a trade counter by yours and they usually can get things later same day. Use the phone if your in a hurry.

If your stuck ECP have lots of distributors
