Brake pads / rotors S80

My wife's '02 S80 with 35k is due for new front brake pads. There also is a vibration at higher speeds when you apply the brakes some I'm sure the rotors are warped a bit. My question is, should I go ahead and replace the rotors or get them turned? I know the pros and cons of both but wasn't sure how well the S80 rotors take to turning. Any tricks to getting the rotors off? They looked pretty straightforward but every car has its idiosyncrasies.

Any suggestions on places to buy the parts? Tire Rack has reasonable Brembo rotors that I've used on another vehicle with good luck. I'm sure the dealer prices are $$$ for these too.

Thanks,
Chris
