Question: Changing rear disc brake pads

Question

I'm changing the rear disc brake pads on my 1991 Mercedes 190e. This is my first time. Does anyone have a site with photos showing the steps. On the inside of the disc there are 4 bolts, 2 smaller bolts near the edge and 2 larger bolts half way down the disc. I need to know which to unbolt and sequence.

Thanks for any suggestions.

    brother DO NOT UNDO THOSE BOLTS!!!!!! there are two pins on each caliper that you drive out with a pin driver(or small punch) then slide the pads right out the back side. you have to push the calipers all the way in(can be done with small pry bar or large screwdriver)wedge it in between the pad and rotor.its very easy once you push out the pins!
