Default Rear brake pad removal

Hey all

My rear pads have finally expired on the scoob. Does any one know if it is an easy job to change the back pads in the calipers and do i require a special tool to wind the pistons back in or bypass the handbrake

Since the car hasnt really been used at all the last few months due to my working away im not bothering with flash pads so il be ordering those oe choices from camskill this week to arrive while i am on holiday in the states.

Cheers Guys

Ian

No Ian sold the Brembo's on after

There easy to do on the standard calipers aswell mate i did mine myself

No special tool needed for the piston, just pushes back (used a large pair of grips) and the handbrake is in the Drum so nothing to do with the pads.

If u need a hand give me shout, it's a job that can be done easy enough on your drive.
