Actually, it is hard to know for sure if they will work or not. They are binary switches, so are only triggered when the metal element makes contact with the rotor. So it's a matter of how well they are positioned and if they remain in the proper orientation and wear out as intended--meaning will they trigger at the same minimum pad thickness as stock, etc. I am sure Brembo must have thought about that stuff though.
