HI
They are very simple to change , there is a metal spring clip going through the pins that hold the pads in place , you can remove the spring clip and pins by hand , the pads will pull out then , the only tool you may need in a flat screw driver the carefully push the pistons back into the calipers , when I do them I put the screw driver between the old pads and the discs , that way you wont damage the piston seals , take one pad out at a time , and fit the new ones as you go , refit the pins and spring clips and pump the pedal to bring the pistons back out before you drive it.

It is a very simple job to do
