How do you change brake pads for an 1989 Honda Accord?
I have an LX on mine all you do is on the back side of the caliber(the thing that holds your brake pads) on the bottom there is a bolt. Back out the bolt and rise the caliber all the way up and slide it toward the engine. That will take the caliber off and then you just replace the pads and do vise versa to put it back together.
