Rear Brake Squealing

Hi all, first off Fiesta is a Mk6 1.3 on a 52 plate.

It looks like i need new rear brakes, the hand brake now barley holds on a hill (last knotch on lever) and theres intermitent squeeling from the drums.

However, ive been told that there could be 3 or 4 different types of shoes/pads ??? used on this year, and if its got ABS will make a difference.

First off can anyone help identify exactly wether I have ABS, (no light for it on dash)

Exactly what pads/shoes i need, a part number would be fantastic.

As im away from home at the mo, ill have to send wife to wherever(part stockist,Motor Factor EBAY ??) and arrange fit by phone so i dont want any hicups with the wrong set of whatever i need. Does the chassis/Reg number nail it down any further ?

Thanks in advance.

Nigel
