You got it, and yes it is a pretty easy job.  Caliper does not need to
come off, you just remove one bolt and it flips open.  New bolt with
lock-tite coating should come in box with new pads.

I HIGHLY recommend the Akebono ceramic pads, but you may need to replace
the rotors at same time to avoid a noisy outcome.  I know of at least
one fellow who didn't put in new rotors and had no noise problems, so
you might get lucky if you keep your old rotors (assuming they're still
in spec. for thickness).

Subject: [MBZ] Dash warning lights

I think I know the answer to my first question.  I had a warning light
come on my car (1995 E320).  It has only come on once or twice.  It is a
circle with little dashes all around it.  I think that is the brake pad
warning light.  Is that right? Its for the front brakes, right?

If it is the brake pads, is that an easy job?  I know its easy for a lot
of you, but what about a beginner?  I have only changed brake pads twice
and they were pretty simple (on a Ford Crown Vic) once I figured out how
to get the caliper off.
