You will need: time, patience, WD40 and tools.
It should be fairly obvious once you get the wheels off.

Yeah its a simple job, buy this http://www.haynes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/...10001&storeId=10001&productId=40201&langId=-1 as most of the bits are the same, then make sure you got all the tools.
OR
Paint them on the car. Just mask everything that you dont want paint on so the disks, pads, any parts used for bleeding etc.
Doing them on the car has got to be easier.

In all honesty if you don't know what your doing, dont with brakes.

Just paint them on the car, would also help to know what brakes you have,

Have you ever changed a set of pads on any car? - I'm going to tackle mine soon as they are needing a good clean.
