miles easier, the calliper is on sliding pins, undo the bottom 12mm bolt and the calliper lifts up and slides off!

rear calliper (if it has rear discs) is tricky, the piston needs to be wound back while you press it back in.

If your just doing pads then yeah just undo bottom 12mm bolt and flick the caliper up and swap them over. If your doing discs too just slide the caliper off and you will need to unbolt the carrier. You will need a 12mm female torx socket for the carrier, at least I think its 12mm anyway.
Have you had a look or are you just asking in advance as they really are a piece of piss.
