Another Alcon Brake Issue .. sort of ...

Okay .. need help again from those running Alcon Brakes.

Specifically the brake pads:

I need a confirmation on pad thickness for the front mono6 calipers.

On Alcon's Catalogue, it states that pad thickness as 18mm for the Mono6 with pad shapes:
Mintex MDB2607
Alcon 4497
Pagid U8028
SBS 3061
Ferodo 3081

Ref: http://alcon.co.uk/Catalog/11.pdf

However all the above pad shapes (well actually only the ones that I can find references to) states that the pad thickness as 16mm

For eg:

Ferodo 3081: FRP3081 152x51x16 mm

Hawk Pads:

With the EXCEPTION of Pagid http://www.braketechnology.com/brakes/8028.html

I know that the 16mm thickness definitely fits - but can someone confirm whether the Pagid is indeed 18mm (those of you with RS29s)??

Does 18mm thickness fit caliper CAR97??
