Hey Jaay,
Very nice job!!! I especially liked the screwdriver with the vise grip technique  I will definitely have to try that out. I've actually had my rotors (similar ones) sitting in my garage for months now awaiting the day that I can get to that mod! I'll be doing the calipers as well. Can't wait!
BTW, is the technique the same for the removal and installation of the front and rear rotors?? Any differences?? Anything you would do differently if you had to do them again??
Thanks in advance.

100% the same, same tools, nothing extra and nothing less.

Yup.. There was no difference. The only thing I think I would have done different is to order some chinese food while waiting for the paint to dry.

Impact Driver?
I know it's not as elegant a solution as the ViseGrip-Phillips technique , but I've found an impact tool very helpful for rotor positioning bolts. One whack with the hammer and-Presto!-the rusted whatever is loose, the head intact, and my screwdriver not gurred up by the mating session with the ViseGrips Just a thought

At the time it seemed to be the best thing. I also had help from mike "mikes hard lemonades) Thanks for the tip though. Hopefully others will follow your lead.
