Both are easy as sin.

For the rear shocks:

You need to unfasten the liner in your trunk covering the rear shock mounts..
Loosen the bolts at the top of the mounts
Loosen the bolts attached to the rear axle and they come right out.
Use spring compressors to compress the springs
Loosen the piston bolt, remove the strut mount and spring stay and toss the old shocks

To change the brake pads, you unloosen the 2 bolts connecting the caliper to the caliper bracket, remove the caliper, then replace the pads.

To the reverse to get everything back on.
