Any tips on what calipers would fit straight on? A new stock one is expensive. DTRE 2004

How is the caliper broken?

I've got a full bled unit off my RE if you're interested? Fresh pads and in reasonable condition

@calum the gliding pin is extremely rusty

@bananper polish it back or replace it?

Put up a pic so we know what you mean

@Bananper I would polish it back if it's just a bit of rust.

@finnerz89 @Calum it's not possible to get the other part (not sure what it's called) off the slider, tried knocking it off with a hammer but it really won't come loose... Never experienced something like this.
I don't really want to risk breaking the part of while knocking it off before i know of a caliper that's available
