… you have to be careful not to cut them against the edge of the caliper.
If you use a socket and clamp to press them in you run that risk.
I set them in by hand and the run a wooden dowel around the edge to make sure its properly seated.
The trick is to have the piston completely seated so it leaves enough room for the seal to fit.
Happy Porschen,
