I did it on my girlfriends 02 plate coupe, rears only.

Its a very easy job actually. You will need a screwdriver (flat head) and a mallet as the the hub nut is hammered down to stop it from shifting. Also I had to get the mallet back out to seperate the hub and the disc.

Otherwise just the obvious, tie the brake caliper to the suspension to stop it streching any cables. And I lost a lot of brake fluid whilst doing it, so make sure you have some spare.

Goodluck!

Oh and the hub nut is 32mm so you will need a 32mm socket to get it undone. It was very tight so an extension bar would also help.
