if you have a brake pad wear indicator warning light on the mfa on your instrument cluster then you want the pads with the wear ind wiring plug  :wink:

just to add if you look at the front brake pads passenger side front i think there should be two wires coming from the caliper area one will be your abs sensor and the other will be the brake pad wear sensor (if fitted) this should be clipped to the strut and is a long plug iirc
