No need to remove the calipers. If fact its not a good idea to remove the calipers unless you have to.
Just use a small metal putty knife (about 1.5" wide) and slip it between the pad and the shim.
It will require a little force the first time.
Once you separate the pads from the shims, the pads just pull out easily
Once you have changed pads once, it takes longer to jack up the car and remove the wheels than it takes to replace the pads
