the things on the side... next to the brake pads there are 8 of them..... well i have 7 of them....

Gotcha. I call those pad guides, but I think I made that name up.

Yes, you need them. If the 240's are the same you can use one. If not, head back to the yard and grab one. I dont believe in experimenting with brakes...
