Its pretty straight forward. Remove wheels, remove calipers (make sure to support them), pull old pads, put new pads in, reverse process. I would recommend changing the brake fluid at the same time.

ok thanx..any suggestion on brake pads other than the black dust producing OEM...should i change the brake sensors too even though its still good and not throwing any signal on my dashlight? im not hitting metal to metal yet i think i still have atleast 3 more months with my pads, im just trying to avoid the metal to metal squeek and mess up my rotors..thanx in advance
