Eurocarparts usually have some good deals on Brembo.

If they squeal, take them out and put a bit of copper grease on the back of the pads.

Copper anti-seize paste should be used not grease.

I've got 1LT brakes on the front of mine, just replaced pads and discs both ATE. Used a little 'Copperslip' or equivalent when I put them back together. Brakes fine and not a peep from them

Slider bolts lubed?

[palmerj]

No I didn't. I looked very carefully when I took them out and unless the lube they used is clear they were clean. Also I didn't want to risk the copper slip attacking the rubber in the plastic guides in the caliper. Maybe I've done the wrong thing but I figured discretion was the best option.
No doubt someone on the forum may correct me
