How easy is it to fit new pads to the rear of my 2002 bugeye? Do i need any special tools etc?

Not difficult at all, takes longer to get the wheels off than to change the pads, unless of course you are talking about the handbrake shoes (which shouldn't need changing) in which case it is still simple, but takes slightly longer.

Wheels off, remove pad retainers, slide out pads, push caliper pistons back (remembering to take lid off brake fluid reservoir), slide in new pads (with shims/copper grease), refit retainers, refit reservoir lid, refit wheels, pump brakes and then drive

Super, will get them in this weekend then! Black Diamond predators, hopefully less dust than standard!
