Rotor change in 03 X5 4.4

Hi
Am thinking of switching out my stock rotors for a set of slotted/cross drilled set front and/or back to go along with an upgrade of my current pads. Anybody done this as a DIY job or had their dealer or independant shop do it? If so what was the cost; any instructions online avail for DIY? Equipment needed?

Also what recs do folks have for upgrading brake pads? My OEM's produce too much dust for my liking and I'd like to get something both quieter and less dust producing. This is my daily driver by the way...no track or autocross with it...not that I can see myself doing that with an X5. I'll save that for other cars in the stable.

Thankx
Rob
