I was searching Brake Pads for my Civic (2009 Honda Civic LX-S, 1.8L SOHC).

Was checking Duralast Gold CMax vs Akebono ProACT Ultra Premium, but decided to go with Akebono this time.

Found on Pep Boys for $73. Part # ACT465A

I checked Amazon, found for $40 "Akebono ACT465A ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad Set"

Both seem to be the same set of brakes?

But the Amazon Part Checker, says it doesn't fit my car for the LX-S (it fits the LX though). Pep Boys Part Checker says it fits just fine.

Anyone know if I can ignore the Amazon warning and get the Akebono for my car ?

With Amazon, it seems to show me results for my car, but then when I check each search result, it says it doesn't fit my car, so I am not sure how accurate the Amazon part checker is. I am assuming it isn't that accurate and that the Akebono brakes would be fine, but I just wanted to make sure.

(sedan) DX, VP, LX, and LXS all use the same pads according to my catalog info.


OE pads, $42.51 @ online dealers.
