Where are you buying your ebrake pads from?

I was just checking here to see where you guys were buying your ebrake pads from. My local auto parts store says that they can not get them in. I saw that fcp groton had them but they are a little pricey.

I was just trying to locate the bottom line price.

THANKS

Check eBay. I seem to recall that I saw a couple of listings for them at around $30.00 a pair.

I replaced mine a couple weeks back with a set from the local discount auto parts store (PartSource in Canada). After installation they were very hard to adjust, and seemed to catch at the top of the shoe. I compared the replacements with the old Volvo oems, and noticed the friction surface on the new shoes extended another 1/2" or so farther on the top of each shoe. A quick dressing on the bench grinder adjusted them to match the profile of the oem parts, after which they adjusted properly with no grabbing tendency.
