My rear brakes need done and fancy doing them myself as I recon I'd sabra few £. I've looked for a how to ect and done a search but had no luck. I've done a few brake changes before but how hard will the rears be and apparently the bearings in the disc? Bit lost on this one! It's a cup btw :)

Renault ones come with the bearing and ABS ring already fitted.
