After 23K miles in my Corsa Life looks like I've killed the front pads. Ok its due for a service in a week or two but was thinking that I should change them myself and save some money.

So my question which break pads should i go for? (Discs are fine)

1) standard (Any one know how much I'll be looking at
2) go for aftermarket ones (pref cheaper)

Thanks in advance.
