    How did you hit your head on the mirror? No seatbelt? what did you hit?

    Yes. Brakes are bled. And pads are in correctly according to Haynes. The screecher thingy pad on the outside.

    Brakes still work fully too.

    You don't have to bleed brakes when you put pads on.

    I bet you bent your dust shield.

    Bend the metal shield behind the brakes back out it's probably rubbing. It's easy to make the mistake i've done it before.
