Was being told that pre FL picanto rear brakes are brake shoes and not disc.
Wanted to get brake pads from an online forummer but was given this piece of info.
So how to replace rear brakes? change whole of rear brake drums?

FL picanto rear brakes are also drum... use brake shoes, not pads only front disc use brake pads to replace rear brake shoes, got to open up the drum, then can see the inside
