Nope. Warm weather (above 30 and sunny 
) is here and I have the new seals, I'm just waiting on the pads and brake fluid. Once I have that I'll get a friend over and we'll install them.
Edit: Grrr, Autozone got me the wrong seals. Dammit. I'm done with them, they never get it right when I need something
Just ordered the right ones from NAPA. Once those are here I'll finish up with that. Good news is that the caliper pistons and walls are in good shape, no pitting at all. Yay.

Yup. Lemme grab a pic and I'll edit this post.
Edit: Here they are. Ooo, ahh. Painted them in one of the utility closets in the basement, so no, my main house closets don't look like that.
Before anyone asks, the reason I didn't paint the inside of the brackets is two reasons - first, you can't see it on the car. Second, the clearances on brake parts are very very small. The thickness of paint can throw things off enough to where parts won't fit right.
