Urgent need for new brakepads!

[Fjellfinn]

My liberty /KJ / 2003 model 2.8 crd Liimited has worn out front brake pads, and almost half the rear.

Where do I buy these 8 pads cheapest, should I go for genuine Mopar or are others just as good, what do I need to buy besides of the pads and is it easy to do this myself ?

Many questions, please forgive me (Aeh)

I don't know about where to go, I alwasy go to a local place, not the dealership for brakes, too expensive. But what I do know is Organic pads wear faster (and are typically stock pads) but stop quicker.
Semi-metallic take a little longer to stop, but take longer to wear out.

Sorry - I was a bit unprecise.

I live in Norway, where brakepads -- original Mopars - costs approx 300 USD a pair (front or rear)

I have found a lot of offers on eBay -- at about USD 30 a pair -- any good?

Other USA stores that I should ask ?

metalics (or semi-metalics) all the way!

And I'd go to a local shop definitely. $300 USD a pair is outrageous!

OK.
I have a small problem: this very nice eBay seller (?):
http://stores.ebay.com/BrakePlanet
has metallics for KJ but simply won´t send to Norway.
How do I "fix" that ?

If the seller is not shipping out of the country then you can't fix it unless you convince him/her to ship. Maybe find out the cost to ship to Norway and how much you are willing to pay for the extra shipping (give him a little kick back). Keep the costs in the area that you want to spend and you should be okay. If the seller is firm he/she will not ship.

Don't come over to the to this side of the pond for pads when some of the best in the world are built a lot closer to you. Brembo, Rotex, and others. Shipping I'd think would also be easier.

Hmmm?

I have just got a very good deal from a German seller on Raybestos brake pads - no good ??

Raybestos make fine brake pads.
