Default 2 questions

G'day all. Few questions for ya.

1) Will an EB sedan front windscreen fit an EA sedan?
2) What sort of brake callipers do the EA's have - are they PBR?
Mine are, and they don't look like the ones in the Haynes manual.

Cheers for your help.

Hey, ahh, what would you use to get white paint (ie: rubbed off a post I came too close to) off the side mouldings?
