The sensor is integrated onto the pads for the A8, the sensor linked above won't work. To get the light off all you need to do is cut the sensor wire at the pad, bare the wires back, twist them together, cover with insulating tape and tie up out of the way. (do not unplug the sensor plug, leave it plugged in)
The cause of the sensor tripping before the pads are worn is caused by worn discs, there will be a large wear lip round the inner and outer edges of the disc, the inner one will have cut into the sensor.
I'm sorry to say it's time for new discs and pads
