I also see brakeparts.co.uk sell pads, but here there cheaper but not as good as oem ones and dont last as long, id rather get oem if there only a bit more expensive.

Can anyone confirm this?

Not sure RE: OEM one's, although recently bought some from brakeparts.co.uk, they were dirt cheap but they made the loudest squeaks you could ever imagine, I was embarassed driving the car.....

Took it back to the dealers who I got to fit them (during a service) and they replaced them not realising they weren't OEM's.... :-)
