simple really, youll need a long thin punch to remove the pad retaining pins, then remove pads, then 2 19mm bolte that hold the caliper on need to be removed. then you might need to remove two screws that hold the disc on. youll need a impact driver to remove them or they might already be gone. simples :)

this is providing you have brembo brakes, if not the the process is very simular :)

not 100% sure they are brembos but they are standard its just that when i went to change the pads (before i found the discs were shagged!) i couldnt actually see any screws, maybe i just wasnt lookin properly!!:razz:

if they are brembo then they will be red (or faded pink) with brembo written on them :)

the screws if they are there will be inbetween the wheel studs.

try giving the disc a wack with a hammer from behind while rotating it at the same time :)

There might not be screws in place.

Lee is right, take a look and you may see one or two screws on the discs.

Otherwise, they were held in place by the Wheel Nuts so shocking them with a hammer should help to release them.

It is not a hard job to replace them at all.
