suggestions for break pads needed... 850

I just bought new pads from www.ips-parts.com They have a wide selection, including the original Volvo front pads (these are the ones listed with no brand name, but just say "OEM"). They did not have Volvo branded rears, and I bought a set of Textar. Both ips-parts and people on the Brickboard claimed that Volvo OEM pads were from Textar and Dan Block, but the pads that came in the Volvo box said Jurid on them.

(BTW, ips-parts also carries PBR pads, which most Brickboarders seem to like. I wanted to use Volvo original because I got 43,000 squeal free miles out of the originals, and I saw no reason to change for a $10 or $15 savings.)
