You can do them in about an hour. I hope you bought new fluids also?

No fluids, and it will take me way longer than an hour to do all 4 corners. More like half a day for my slow@ss...

Geez Pete. The brakes on these cars are scary easy. The longest part is jacking the car up and taking the wheels off. I can do a corner in like 10-15 minutes tops.

Josh is right! Two bolts removes the calipers, and the rotors pull right off. Install new pads when the calipers are bolted back in...a whole 10 mins. Spend the next 5 drinking your beer, and move to the next wheel!

I haven't done brakes on my car in 3yrs so don't really remember how long it took before, the half day thing was a guess. OK, I'll do it in twenty minutes, then I drink for the next 3hrs 40min, how does that sound?
