Check out my rear caliper lock pin
Check it out - while disassembling my rear calipers for a paint job (that went horribly wrong but thats not the point) I noticed some chump had the lock/guide pins on one of my rear calipers swapped. Didn't take any further notice untill I come to put it back together. Check out the photo, it says it all.
Question: While I wait for a replacement part will it be safe and/or wise to drive the car with this lock pin (inserted in the correct location)

Never mind, I've put the brakes back together, bled them (no speed bleeders!!!!) and went for a spin. No issues.
I'll get some replacement bolts anyway, might as well do all 4, and I'll put them in when I finish my caliper paint job in a few weeks.
