So since I had to rent a car for a week while waiting for my new mechanical ignition part to come in, I want to go ahead and do the brake pads that need replacing. I haven't done this myself before so I could use any tips, but also need to check what I will have to order:

- front brake pads
- rear brake pads
- power brake bleeder from FCPgroton? (worth $50 I think?)
- fluid
- do i need the springs/hardware for sure?

How much brake fluid will I need?

How do I know if I should be doing the rotors as well?
