I have done mine and it was quite straightforward, the fiddly part is changing the rear handbrake shoes if necessary. hopefully yours are OK.

Re: rear discs 406 hdi
As said its all straight forward stuff. The calipers will have to be unbolted and swung out of the way so make sure you have a very good 6mm allen socket.The bolts can be very tight and if rounded your in the s!!?.Adjust the hand brake shoes through the hole in the disc before you fit the brake pads.When all rebuilt make sure the metal brake pipe is not touching anything.Just look at it and you will see what I mean.
