all you gotta do is take off your wheel take the 2 bolts off your caliper connecting your caliper to your wheel area...should be one on top and bottom...then as for the set screws I would just drill them out...take the heads off with a drill...drill straight through it and circle around so the head comes off and hit it on the back with a hammer install the news ones....compress the piston with a seaclamp and slide the caliper back in place...PUMP THE BRAKES EVEN B4 YOU PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION...and drive and see how it works....make sure you try to stop acouple times while backing up
