Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Cardone 19-6969 caliper on a Fiat 500, ensure the use of recommended brake fluid as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. The caliper comes with a hardware kit, but mounting bolts must be sourced separately. Use silicone grease on floating caliper mounting pins to prevent squealing and ensure smooth operation.
