Check with your dealer or auto part store for proper parts for your vehicle. Check your manual for safety stuff. This was easily my easiest brake job. If you don't feel confident don't do it.

Tools I used: 17 mm socket (caliper bolts), 19 mm socket (lugs, channel locks (compressing caliper pistons). Also Disc quiet and Anti-Seize is nice.
Use gloves for extra protection against brake dust. Clean anything you touch and inspect your rotors for uneven wear.
Before driving you MUST turn the car on in park, gently tap the brakes (not to the floor!) before driving. Also check your brake fluid.

These pads are interchangeable so the instructions should apply for the following pads and vehicles:
