Buy high quality brake parts, and its best to use brand new pads when replacing a rotor.
You will have to open your brake fluid reservoir, and use a clamp to push the piston inward on your caliper in order to re install the caliper. Use brake stop squeak on all contact points between the pads and calipers. Also use brake cleaner on the rotors. Never work on or under a car without the use of jack stand for safety.
