Brake Question

According to the dealer, my 2000 9-5 wagon (60,000) needs new pads and rotors for the front. The dealer wanted $525 which I thought was high. I read a few posts that offer a bunch of different info:
1) Some folks say the brakes are interchangeable with Saturn L series, but I called to local Saturn dealers and they say no. What is the real answer. I think because they are both GM, they just won't/can't do the work.
2) I called a local mechanic that fixes Saab's, and they gave me a price of $350 using Bosch parts. Does that matter?
3) Any recommendations for other brands? I read a lot of posts on EBC pads. How about rotors?
4) Or should I just go with Saab factory parts?
Thanks
