Wheel removal stuff (jack, axel stand etc) Hex soxkets (IE ALLEN KEY ONES), Ratchet, as pair of long nose pliers thats about all,

Piece of **** to do, un bolt the caliper, remove clips noting which way round they go, swap pads, if the piston needs to be pushed back (Which it will) remove the brake fluid cap under the bonnet and place a rag over it. The Pistons screw in not push as most cars, replace pads and refit (reverse order)

Sorry if its written poorly but its early

Not being funny here (i know everyone has to start somewhere), but if you need to ask how to fit brake pads should you really be attempting it yourself!!! Its a very simple job but brakes are kinda important and you dont want to screw it up!!
