i havent done mine before but have on another car. The front isnt too bad but with the rear it gets a bit harder as the handbrake and all there bits take time.
checkout www.madmagna.com there's a great write up on how to do it there.....

oposite way round on the ts tr the rear are a piece of piss but the front are a bit harder you have to clamp off the break lines take the wheels off etc if u want any more info (if there already isnt enough from madmanga hehehe ) just give me a bell

Not flaming but clamp off the front brake lines, no such luck, they have a 12mm head bolt that removes the brake line from the damper thus ny brake parts have to be undone

sorry didnt sound right well i did undo my break lines but i clamped the flexible pipe that goes to the steel/ metal whatver it is pipe so that break fluid doesnt go everywhere :) sorry misinterperated me :) there are a couple of ways of doing it i did it that way and i also re-did all my break fluid full flush etc

NP,
just so others know you do not need to split the line, ie remove the rubber section from the metal section though.
