very easy but hard to describe,take wheel of u will see a brake disc there is the unit that holds the pads in place called a calaper,look behind it at the top and bottom there will be a nut about 14ml remove the top nut and bottom the calaper should then lift of BE CARFULL NOT TO BURST THE BLACK TUBE as this is ur brake fluid,or any wee nipples as they can be fragile ,the pads just pop out,onced removed u will see behind one of the pads a big round metal bit that operates in and out when brake pedal is pressed, try to push this back as far as possibale to allow more space to pop in new pads,pop the new pads into place put back over the brake disc ensure that it is not tight ,THE DISC SHOULD TURN FREELY ONCED IT IS IN PLACE u should not need to force it ,if so take the pad out where the metal piece is that u pushed back I RECOMEND A G CLAMP it is very easy, tighten to as far as it will go. put pads back in place then put the 14ml bolts back on ensureing proper alignment job done good luck u can conntact me if u wish on 01506652861 and i can tell u better RECOMMENDED that u CHANGE THE BRAKE DISCS WHEN CALAPER IS OFF U DO that by undoing the SCREW ON THE DISC CHAP WITH A HAMMER IT SHOULD THEN JUST FAL OFF,if disc worn or scored the replace
