My car does not have the front anti rattle shims. It seems I was the first to 
disassemble the front calipers so I suspected this was OEM. I could have used 
them though since I had a noticable rattle. Cured the rattle with Permatex 
Disc Brake Quiet, both on the pads as instructed and on the pins where they 
enter the caliper.
