buy a can of brake caliper lube (bout 6 bucks), dont buy the little packets.. not enough lube for everything, and about 1/2 the cost of a can that will last your whole life.
lube the bad of the brake pads
lube the pistons of the calipers
lube the rails the pads will sit on
lube the caliper bolts (smooth surface part)
lube the mating surface when the caliper bolts up the bracket.
you wont have any noise after that. may seem over kill, but its exactly what i did, and i am happy.

Sounds like a good deal - only problem is, I'm not really handy with stuff like this; and that's an understatement. Never replaced brake pads and not sure if I want to even attempt doing it on the H2.
The pads you mentioned run about $142 per pair ... so definitely not very expensive. But I'd have to get it done from someone. Not sure if any of these retail places would do it.

On a side note -- I was reading another thread here and they replaced their OE with Ceramic Brake Pads to get rid of the noise; so I'm even more confused now.
