So I'm going to buy this: http://www.topgearsolutions.com/stop...e-package.html

I assume I need to purchase sensors separately - one front and one rear - as well as the mid stainless steel lines and brake fluid.

Is there anything else I'm missing?

Also, what about brake fluid? Is anyone using non-OEM? Any benefits to the more expensive fluids other than higher boiling point?

You really only need to replace the sensors if you've worn down the pads to the point were they've contacted the sensors and the sensors have begun to wear. The mids are tricky. I did mine when I had the rear subframe dropped for new bushings. They can be done without dropping it but it's a bitch. You need a 11mm flare wrench if you don't already have one as well.

My personal favorite and usually readily available at NAPA, Autozone, or O'Reillys if any of those are local to you.

Thanks for the info. Any hints on an easy way to do the mids without dropping the frame?

Here's a old DIY. It's doable, it just takes a while because you can only turn the flare nuts a small amount.
