Seized brake

Howdy there! As the title suggests, my front right caliper has seized up on me. I have been trying to find a replacement, but the only remans I can find are for the left side > I am most likely going to just rebuild them because I have to use my car. I would like to just replace the caliper at some point soon though, so my question is this, will the single pot calipers from an s4 fit on an s5 gtu with the 5 lug single pots?

Let's start with what year your car is. This will help us help you. Secondly, you can create a want to buy thread in the marketplace section reference the caliper. Its likely that someone has a good used one they would sell you. If all else fails you can rebuild your caliper. If you are unsure of how to do so and do not have a factory service manual, search some threads and if you don't find a clear answer, create a post in the 2nd gen tech section and guys will chime in and help you out.
