brake flush and pad replacement 900 2005

The car is a 1995 940 turbo wagon with ABS that is due for new brake pads and flush. I've quite a bit of DIY experience with brakes for the older 240s and 740s without ABS, but none on later models with ABS. Is there anything I should be aware of that is not described in FAQs or elsewhere on this site. I think I've pretty much covered my bases there and don't want to be surprised once I start. I use a Motive Products power bleeder and will flush the system before changing pads.

Another thing is that the numbering system for the PBR Deluxe pads that I want to buy are different between FCPGroton and IPD, e.g., 1456D for front pads at FCPGroton and 1198D at IPD. Are they the same pads? FCPGroton also doesn't distinguish between cars with ABS or not, while IPD does.

Any thoughts much appreciated.
