I have a sedan if that makes a difference from the coupe. How do you undo the lower 14mm caliper bolt that allows the caliper to to swing up to access the pads? The radius rod from the rear suspension unfortunately is in the way and doesn't allow much room for me to use a ratchet or breaker bar and a 14mm socket to undo the bolt. The only thing that will fit in between is a 14mm open end wrench and that is way too small to get any leverage to break the bolt. What tool do I need to break that bolt and to be able to torque it back down after changing the pads? Thanks.

I've already PM'd you. Try jacking up the suspension so the radius rod is just out of the way. You should have just enough space to sneak a socket and a short extension to the bolt.

Thanks Clint. Didn't think of using my smaller jack to raise the suspension up. I'll give that a shot and I'm sure it'll work.
