Not going to get a picture at this time of night. When you pull the hand brake on the cables turn a shaft on the back of the callipers. That small piece of metal sits in an offset hole in the shaft and pushes the piston and pads against the discs as the shaft turns.

I'm becoming too obvious, have to stop using things that are connected with other posts.

Yes, heater box again. Sit in recesses around the ends of the flap spindles, on the outside.

This is an easy one if you, like me, have broken one.  However they don't often break:

This one is frustrating, as I'm sure I've clipped them on as I've been fitting the trim, but can't for the life of me remember exactly where!

Yes they secure a trim panel. Just one edge of the panel is secured by several clips.

Likewise, thought the sill trims but they are white plastic, maybe one is metal?

Found one just the same between the carpet and underlay of the front passenger side footwell.

Had dried up and come off, but presumed from the way it was facing it was originally stuck to the carpet.
