Follow the DIY. Ceramics are OK. A brake change per wheel takes about 15 minutes from removing the wheel to bolting it back on. Take your time.

There are DIY stickies here and over on Benzworld. Youtube has a few videos on it. SBC is scary and should be paid attention to, but if you do...it's like any other brake job.
