it is easy first you need to get the too for rear brakes, i forgot what it is called, but it is a cube, and it attaches to a quarter inch socket. first you have to disconnect the the e brake, you can do it with a socket wrench, i for got what size what socket, depended on which side you are working on the the direction of turning the socket changes, one you releave tension, on the e brake you can disconnect it easliey, you can do it with out a socket rench, but it will be hard. then you take off the two bolts that hold the caliper in place on the bracket, once you got the bolts off use a flathed screwdriver, or prybar to remove the caliper. once you got the caliper off remove pads, and get the tool, just go to advanced auto, and say you need the tool for rear brake on a forigen car. attach the tool to the socket wrench and place on the caliper, the cube has four different attachments for the calliper so use the side that corrensponds with the calliper. so with the cube attached to the socket wrench put it on the calliper and and turn clockwise till the calliper is all the way in, it might take some force to turn it back it depending on the last time the pad were changed. just be pacient and use a lot of force, it is cheaper to do it your self then to pay someone to change it for you
