what pads ?

hi folks.
new pads arrived for my 2.7 and i went to fit them today.
unfortunatly the fronts dont fit.
i think ive been sent S pads which are bigger i beleive.
the supplier sent me ebc yellow stuff pads ,which according to his catalogue should of fitted.
he has no other referance of pads for 2.7.
does anyone know which other model they share brake pads with.
a 2.7 boxster perhaps ? or 3.2 boxster S ?.
shame really as pads front and rear were £140.00 - cheap i thought.
cheers.

I think the Cayman 2.7 pads are smaller and slightly different shape:

No cut-out for the wear-sensor units on the drawing of those pads!! Are you going to tape the sensors up?

thanks for all the advise so far.
spoken to supplier (euro car parts) and we have come to the conclusion that
the pads we require are from a 2.7 boxster 2005 on.
the measurements for the pads are the same as the ones i took out of the cayman and have fittings for the warning wires too. (so they say anyway)
they should be her on tuesday.
also they are cheaper still !
looks like ebc yellow stuff all around with warning wires for £120.00 inc va.t.
these have been put on the company account , so i wont know a definate price until invoiced.
will go for fitting next weekend.
cheers.
