Rear rotor removal

Guys, i can't believe I can't find this but, can someone please give me a link or instructions on removing the rear rotors on my C32????? i'm working on it now, and I really need some help. I'm think it could just be stuck, but I think there may be a parking break to loosen.

HEEEEEELPPP??? THE CAR IS ON THE JACKS RIGHT NOW.

tools ur need,16mm for the two bolts behind the rear rotors, 1/8 inch tool to strike out the pins which locks the ( dual pistons caliper). screw driver to take the rotors screws off, hammer to knock out the old ones on the car.

Verify that your parking brake is released...

you can hit it on the facing of the rotors (try front and back if its stuck really good), thats how i get my out just go easy on it.... dont hit it too hard it will crack the rotors.

I did the same thing. Then I pounded on it with a mallet for 2 hours (to no avail). Then I opened my driver's door and pulled the parking brake release. The rotor fell off. Did I feel like a dumb*ss.
