If you've never done it before, I would suggest you acquire a Chiltons or a Haynes manual. You have to remove the calipers and compress the caliper pistons back into the caliper body (without overflowing the brake fluid reservoir!) so that the new pads will fit properly. And don't forget the anti-rattle clips.

You really should let someone do it that knows how to do it. If you're going to do it yourself, at least invest in some halfway decent instructions (with pictures).

It's easy to do, but like the other gentleman suggested, spend the $15 on a Haynes/Chilton's.
