Anyone who has replaced the front rotors themselves (i.e. actually turned the wrenches, not just dropped it off at a shop), please PM me...

Thanks...

I haven't done the rotors on these cars but here is what you would expect. After getting the wheel out of the way you would want to unbolt the caliper from it's bracket. Then look at the back of the rotor and you should see some big bolts that hold on the caliper bracket. Once the caliper bracket is out of the way the rotor should slide off of the hub. Before replacing the rotor make sure that both the hub and the inside of the rotor where it goes against the hub are spotless. This makes sure that the rotor seats flat. If you have any questions don't hesitiate to ask.
