Akebono Pads - "Noise Insulators?" What are they?
So I had my Akebono Euro Ceramic pads installed a couple weeks ago and today I decided to read the instructions that were in the box and I came across a section about "noise insulators" and this is what it said:
"Before removing the protective film from the noise insulator, make certain the backing plate if free of grease and loose debris..." When I think back to the install, my mechanic just picked up the pads and quickly slapped them on and did not remove any protective film or anything like that. I don't recall how the pads looked and if they had anything to remove on the back... should I remove the pads and check for the insulators or just leave it as is as long as I don't have any squeaks? Anybody install the same pads?
