Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, a welcome to the site combined with a question 
Vibration is probably down to the Bedding in of the pad to the disc. If you fitted them correctly, which is hard not too it can only be this, unless the disc is warped.
Welcome to the mad house too

I fitted LR original discs and pads myself, and only a couple of weeks ago and after 1000 miles I had the same problem as you. They were replaced by the dealer under the parts warranty including the labour.
If yours were originals, don't leave it too long before going back.

I have today replaces my front pads and discs and guess what....I get the same bad vibration when slowing down from 70-45 ish. I have my rear pads and discs on order.
Does anybody know if my rear discs are warped would that give me steering wheel vibration? martyn stagg

thats becasue I'm fairly sure Allmakes get their parts from Britpart. I'd put money on this being your problem.
