          Changing Brake Pads

          Greetings! Let me start off by stating that I have:
          - used the search function "brake sensors", "wear sensors"
          - read through FYI section relating to brakes

          I'm planning to order PAGID RS29 (supercedes RS19?) pads for my M5. From what I can tell, there are no wear sensors that come with them. My questions are:

          - Do I need to replace the brake wear sensors if I put on new pads? My search results revealed a lot of discussion on it but doesn't seem to have a conclusive answer.

          - There is a post that states the brake wear sensors had to be removed because the Pagid pads are big, is this correct?

          - Will putting on Pagid pads and getting a non BMW mechanic to install them, void my warranty?

          - Is it advisable to keep the Pagid pads on for normal day to day driving? Or should I revert back to my stock pads after the track day?

          FYI, when I asked my dealer to give me a quote for new pads they included:
          - 2 sets of Brake Pads (p/n BM-34116768287 & BM-34216768471)
          - 3 sensors (p/n BM-34352282935, BM-34356776421 & BM-34356776422) - why 3??
          - Lubirc 100MG (p/n BM-88881700513)
          - Cleaner (p/n BM-83119407848)

          Thanks in advance!
