Before starting, engage the handbrake and put the car in first gear. Begin by lifting the front of your Opel Meriva.

Once done, unscrew and remove the bolts that secure the front wheels, then take off the wheels themselves. Next, unclip the clips that hold the brake pads in place, and then remove the pads.

Once you have completed this step, you will have finished the disassembly. To install the new pads and refit the wheels, simply follow this procedure in reverse, and the replacement will be complete.
