is it correct that fiesta mk3 brakes can be used on a mini to allow 10 inch wheels

Yes.

A fairly simple conversion.

Are you sure those are MK3 brakes in the vid? I know MK1 and 2's can be used (running MK1's myself) but Ive never heard of MK3's being used. Could be wrong though :)

OOps, that might be my mistake, yes the mk 1 & 2 are useable but i will have to take a look at the ones on my Mk 3 For some reason i thought the calipers were the same for the first three fiesta editions. Maybe i have been cought out this time. :proud: If i am wrong i apologise profusely and bow down to your superior mind.

I may have been thinking of the fact that we fitted Mk 3 disk brakes on the rear of one of our race fiesta Mk 2 cars and got confused.
