I could not find it locally so I ended up using Pentosin dot4 LV from napa. No idea if the claims that the LV help the bleeding go easier (removing bubbles) are real and I have not tested abs reaction times to compare.
Agreed on the brake lines. If ya do "open" the liquid system for lines or other work just make sure you use a power bleeder (like the motive).
I am really interested to hear what you think of those pads.
What about caliper pins; are guys cleaning and greasing or replacing on these?

not worried about bleeding them..a BMW independent shop will replace my brakes as I can't find the time and they need to be replaced now.(less than 1 mm on the rear pads -fronts have just a little more)
Curious as well if the caliper pins need to be replaced or just cleaned and reused.
