just did mine a few days ago...

do one wheel at a time (natch) and one side at a time. by that i mean remove a wheel, remove the pin, bolt, spring. use a screwdriver to get one pad looose. use the pad to push the piston in some. remove a pad. push back the piston, put the new pad in, then move to the next pad. i did the "inside" pad then the "outside" pad. start with the wheel furthest from the reservoir - rear passenger then rear driver, then front passenger, finally front driver. keep an eye on the brake fluid because it will probably rise...

don't open the bleeder valve. just pump the brakes a few times and things will be back to normal.
