Nope its pretty straight forward. Pop cap open on master cylinder, unbolt bottom bolt on caliper and remove, loosen top bolt and swing caliper upwards. Remove old pad and remember to swap the small shim plates that are on the backside of the calipers. Then push the caliper piston bake in and after you put the new pads in you just need to swing the caliper back down and bolt it back up. Thats pretty much it. Keep in mind depending on how much fluid your pushing back to the master cylinder you might want to remove some of the fluid so it doesn't spill. If you've done brakes before it will be extremely easy.
