I own a shop, and the best thing to tell you is; go to the library and look it up in a Chilton's manual for free. You can see step by step how to do it, and you don't have to buy any books that way. Its a good idea to replace both rotors and pads at the same time, rather than just replacing the (disks) rotors. The reason is; they need to wear their own new pattern in the pads as well as the rotors, so if you just replace the rotors, and not the pads you may not have very good brakes.Glad to help out, Good Luck!!!

You gotto to ask yourself have you got enough tools to do the job first.at least a Brake disc punch and hammer, might be a brake press and some copper grease would help as well...If you don't have tools don't attemp to do it, To do this you will need a bit more than just a 10-14mm spanners, I don't want to see people start an job and not able to finish it with a car on axle stand for few days. Then that would be silly.CHRIS
