I just replaced front rotors and brake pads using SOA genuine parts and following instructions from the board, thanks. :banana:The kit included grease with instructions of greasing between backplate of pad and rubberized shim. Also instructed to grease the surface of support that recieves clip as well as surface of clip which is to be attached to pad.

The rear set includes similar parts but no grease or instructions as above.

Should I get some brake anti-squeal grease from Autozone and apply same as above? Probably a dumb question but confidence lacking competence can be dangerous.

its chicken soup, it doesnt hurt. The reason its not incuded is because the front brakes do 80-90% of the braking, so the rears dont get as much heat, so the pads dont rattle as much

Ive never used the greas, i just use the shims and everything seems fine.
