Compatibility of FD brakes with Turbo FC

The brake retractor "M" springs/clips for the front brakes can only be ordered with the pads from Mazda. Do the 4 piston FC brake parts work on the FD? I dont need pads just the "M" springs and clips.

FD calipers have wider M springs and pad-retainer pins.

According to the parts fische, they are only available with new stock brake pads. Try sending a PM to "Fritz Flynn". He has about 50 of everything stacked up in a garage.
