    don't forget to throw a couple lugs in to secure the rotor, i can't remember if the 124 has those pain in the ass back bolted rotors on the front like the 126 and older cars, i think they are pop off's like a 190 and need a few lugs with maybe a few washers each to keep the rotor tight on the hub, same for the rear
