well im gonna be doing the work tomorrow. do you have any tips or is it pretty str8 forward? Are those the only 2 bolts that need to be removed to pop the caliper off?if it is possible can someone give me a step by step diy. i just dont want to fuck anything up and i want to make sure to do the install right the first time.
thanks alot

p.s if anyone could post some pics of the bolts on the caliper it would be even better.

Your brake pads shouldn't have gone bad in that short amount of time. If you want to save some money, fight with the dealer to replace them under warrenty.

well the local dealer here in miami are dicks so i dont even want to waste my time with them. i bought the car in orlando so their gonna tell me i have to go to them which i cant cuz i live in miami now. i went to them to have them check out my notchy tranny and the service rep gave me some bullshit story how because my car is lowered it is going to cuz my tranny to fail because of added stress and that my whole warranty is void blah blah blah and that they drove the car and it shifted fine. so i dont want to go and waste my time and patience with the stupid honda service dept.i dunno wut do u guys think i should do?

I understand your fustration man. Go ahead and buy an after market clutch. You'd be safer and happier with slotted rotors and better brake pads anyway.

If a dealer ever gives you static about your warrenty, tell them you know all about the Magneson VS. Moss lawsuit and you'd be happy to take them to court for not fixing your car under warrenty.

M VS. M, was a lawsuit that a guy filed because a dealer wouldn't do warrenty work on his car.
