Did I mention that the front brakes need a 7mm hex tool to remove the slide pins? The caliper brackets do not get removed unless you replace the rotor.

The rear brakes are like the 240 front brakes. Two pins hold in the spring clip, the pins get punched out (punch and hammer) to release the pads. I use channel lock pliers to carefully push the pistons in and then insert the pads. The holding pins can be reused and hammered back into place.
