Yep thats about it m8, you need a 7mm allen key to remove the caliper guide pins then whip the caliper off pull the pads out push the piston in (G clamp is the best way) then refit the caliper and tighten the caliper guide pins back up after putting a bit of copperslip/ grease on em.

If your changing the discs as well make sure you have a large hammer. they can be a right bitch to get of.
