DIY Brake pads?

I'm having trouble finding the DIY Brake pad thread. Can someone please help me out with a link?

I'm going to be changing the front pads, no rotors.

While that will give a rough idea of how to get the job done, it doesn't give the specifics to the vehicle in question such as torque specs, lubrication points, etc.

Watching: YouTube - Episode #72 - Civic Si HFP Braking System Installation will give you a good GENERAL idea on how to perform generic Honda disc brake changes but is not meant to be a teaching tool. As College Hill suggests, if you are not familiar with brake work it is best left to a professional. I am not a professional but am alarmed at how brake work is treated in general on the net like it is not a very big deal & anyone can do it when that is just plain dangerous (literally) thinking.
