VW Golf Mk 5 1.9 S TDI - Rear Brake Pads Wear Indicator/Warning - Perfection

I am trying to order the rear pads for the above car, but I am not sure if the rear has wear indicator/warning feature. I know the front has when it was repalced last time.

I had looked at Eurocarparks and they sell both with and without, but not sure which one to buy. Please advise.

Thanks,

Perfect.

You will need to look behind the rear wheels to see if there are pad wear indicator wires.It will only have it on one wheel.Be careful and don't get confused with the abs sensor wires.
