Need help identifying brake pads for these Hope disc system...

I think these are circa 2002-2005 but I can't figure out the model or pads that will fit this retro Hope front and rear brake system.

I can't make out the details on the existing pads to search the model number...

The spring is also an absolute nightmare to pinch between the pads and fit. It has pinged off multiple times into my workshop, thankfully I've found it each time 😔

slide them in with the spring in between from the disc side, insert pin and bend over 1 leg. same as any other brake really. :)

you'll need to push the pistons back as well, I use a spacer block.
 
Got the old pads in but the pistons wouldn't stay pushed back 😔 so the pads are now sticking on the disc 😭

That feeling when it all goes to rat doo doo 😂
