The rear calipers are bolted on, depending on who rebuilt the calipers last either with torx or allen bolts.
Undo both.
The old pads and the caliper may not want to come past the rusty edge of the rotor. To get past this I have used a pry bar if the issue is not to bad or a small grinder disk on the rusty raised edges only.
Once the pads and caliper slide off the inside bad is held by a little wimpy clip system and will probably fall out as soon as the caliper clears the rotor.
The outer pad is more securely retained and will require a little force to pop out.
Screw the piston back into the caliper with the special tool you can buy at any parts or auto tool supplier.
Reinstall is reverse of removal from there.
