I had my BMW indy do it. I'm guessing it's a pretty stright forward job, but it's been a long time since I've wrenched on a car. He chargered me $400. Pads and sensors were like $180. I would have paid $1k to get rid of the squeal. Still haven't driven more than a few hundred miles, but not a peep out of them and stopping power is great.

Note: You only need one sensor per axle. One of each part number I listed.

Can't speak to using the OEM sensors, but they are cheap, so I'd replace them.
Thanks for the feedback!!! Change is coming!!!
