Hey Joshua6060,
No experience with either of those brake pads, but for your application, IMHO, there should not be too much of a difference other than the amount of brake dust that you would have to clean and the amount of money you are willing to spend.
As for the cutout of the wear sensor,...nothing to worry about. I have heard of folks just tying them off....as for me, all you have to do is align the old brake pad to the new one, mark it off, and use a very small drill bit to drill the hole (approx. 3/4-1 inch in depth) and you should be good to go.
Also, it's a really good DIY if you're interested! Here's a very good link for that:

Lastly, I just put together a list of our forum members' suggested mechanics / specialists / tech. In Louisiana, (although, I don't know if these are close by), the available ones from the list:
