I am a bit of a numptie when it comes to car mechanics but I have decided to change the brake pads on my car myself yikes
How do you get the caliper pins out? I can't get the pads out as the pins are holding them in.
Is there a special tool? I have tried hitting them out with a old allan key but it's just bent and I don't have anything else that fits.

Any ideas of helpfull advise would be great.

Oh and can you get callipers powder coated?

Thanks guys,

Ive soaked them in WD40 and ordered the tools that Mr2Mike suggested.

I'll give it another go tommorow.
