I don't want OEM due to concern about brake dust.

Your parking brake isn't going to generate any dust, so it doesn't matter what you use.

I don't think the parking brake is very efficient. Are there any replacement pads that might improve it.

The parking brake is mechanical and only engages when you pull the emergency/parking brake lever up. During normal braking operation, the larger Brembo calipers do the braking, not the parking brake.

Those pads will work if you need to replace them, but as others have said they really don't generate any dust, unless you use your handbrake while you are driving!!!

Well I guess there are some maneuvers you use the handbrake for...

Not on your DB9...

Newer models of Jaguar and other brands use the eBrake as an integral part of traction and stability control. But your DB9, and my DBS only connect the parking brake to the manual lever that engages/disengages the parking brake.

I don't know if the newer MY AM's use the ebrake in this way or not...
