Eric -- I took your advise and checked with EBC. They are stating that the "shims" on their pads replace the "vibration dampers". They also, said do not re-fit the OEM shims.

To confirm that we were on the same page I specifically asked if the EBC shims eliminated the need for the OEM shims. They responded that that was correct.

I guess I'll take a look at the OEM vibration dampers when I prepare to install the pad and if it is similar in size and thickness to the EBC shim, I'll have to make a decision then.

Thanks, again, for the advice. I'll try to remember to post and update when the work is completed.
