F/R Brake pad suggestions??

[Derek Pulvino]

I recently changed pads for my car.  I tried to source out the autozones to
no avail.  There are no autozone stores in the great NW, and I coudln't
place and order for the part with autozone over the internet.

I went with the Textar/Jurids from TPC for about 90$.  When you get in and
check it out I'd be curious if you still have the anti-rattle spring on your
front calipers.  Mine had mysteriously disapearred.  I think they may be
pretty hot on the black market as the dealer wanted around 20$ a side, so
maybe somebody stole them right out of my driveway some fateful night.
