13mm headed bolts need removing and the calliper just lifts off. Before removing, twist the calliper upwards by hand which will push the pistons in ever so slightly allowing you to refit the calliper without fouling the brake pads... & VERY IMPORTANT! put your pads back onto the disks in the same order/position you removed them (due to wear on the surfaces ) |

The pads are held in a the carrier and the caliper lifts away, i would make sure you remove the anti rattle springs from the caliper and give the carrrier a good clean out with a file prior to refitting as they
