1. Unless the pads have over half left, replace them at the same time.
2. No set-screw to back off on the front, just compress the caliper (with the bleeder valve open so that the old fluid goes out)
3. c-clamp to compress, open the bleeders to get rid of the old fluid
4. clean the new rotors with brake cleaning fluid to get rid of the grease that they're shipped with to protect them from corrosion, wipe down with rage/paper towels and make sure to get it ALL off.
5. After you're done replacing, go back and bleed the brakes in the proper order to get rid of all the old brake fluid in the system (don't remember the quantities and order without looking), if you don't have a manual, search the board
