It is time to replace my brake pads, front & rear. Are they easy to change yourself or should I have it done?

2004 SE brake pad replacement

I successfully changed the rear brake pads on our '04 last summer. Wasn't too bad. Calipers came off pretty easy. Rotars were another issue. Had to use a rubber hammer to convince them to come off, but once off, no issues.

It all comes down to how mechanical you are and if you trust yourself to do this. In our case, I thought it was worth my time and effort to do this task and save a couple hundred bucks.
