Doesn't it make you feel good?
When the time comes you'll be pleased how easy rotors are too.
For the record the 17mm wrench in the $10 box end wrench set from Harbor
Freight works a treat on a 240D. I've had 3 of 4 calipers off so far. The ones
on my car were TIGHT (well Loctite...) and I beat on the wrench with a 3#
hammer without breaking it...
I've still got the fronts on my 240D laughing at me. Their time will come soon
though, I'm gonna call Rusty this week, with grease in hand I'll attack 'em
next weekend.

I am proud of my meager little car fixin self.
Finally went to hardware store and bought the 17mm shallow socket so I could
proceed to try to remove the calipers.
The two bolts came off quite easily (the joy of a NO rust car!!).
After stupidly trying to tap out the pins the wrong direction, all went
completely smoothly.
Couldnt be much simpler!
Its a good day. Calls for some brewery fresh ales from Hood Canal Brewery.
