I've never done the rears I'm afraid, but the front is banana's

1. Remove the wheel
2. There's a spring on the back of the calliper, each end pokes into a hole on the pins that hold the pads in, remove each end of this and remove the spring
3. Pull the 2 securing pins out
4. Gently push the pistons back into the calliper using a flat screwdriver or something, taking great care not to damage them or their boots
5. Slide the pads out

Refitting is the reverse of disassemmbly.

Remember to use copper grease on the back of the pads and the anti squeel shims from the back of the original pads.
