RE: brake pad change.. easy or dfficult
It's not too hard. I got replacements for mine at O'Reillys auto parts. They were about $70 and came with the little sensors. It took me two hours in the dark with a flashlight. I can't imagine why yours would be squeeking. If the pads wear down far enough they allow the sensors to contact the disc and complete the circuit that turns the brake warning lamp on. Hence you wouldn't expect squeeking/grinding without warning light coming on.
My discs were pretty worn and I intend to replace them as soon as I get some new batteries for my flashlight.

It,s amazing how much the stealership charges for this job. even if you take your rotors to be resurfaced(if enough left), the job probably cost you about 140 for all four wheels. the dealer charges about three hundred aside.
