Rear brake pads

I installed the EBC yellowstuff brake pads on the front for the first time ever thanks to this website. I want to change the rear pads now. Does anybody know how? Is it any different then the front? Thanks

I just put the yellowstuff pads on the rear and it is easier then the front. The RDX rear calipers are the same as the front except only a single piston. The rear piston is a pushback and not a screwback. I didnt need any tool I pushed it back in by hand its REALLY EASY. The brake feel is so much better with EBC yellowstuff on the front and back.

Good to know!
Only problem now is that you'll be washing the wheels twice as much/frequently now

I just install front and rear brake pads EBC greenstuff last weekend. great improvement eventhough it requires brake in period. My RDX brakes like an Audi S4. I'll take dirty wheels anytime over oEM brakes.
