Brake job done.
Put new rotors and pads on this afternoon. Took a trip down to the store and back, and everything feels smooth.
Heres my question. Whats the best way to break the pads in to prevent glazing or mess my new rotors up? Thanks.

No real science to it. Just make sure everything is extra clean when you put it together and avoid any hard braking or stops that would heat up the rotors for the first 30 or so stops. This should let the pads seat into the rotors nicely.
