2003 Tiburon brakes

Greetings to all -- Can anyone provide information about changing brake pads on a 2003 Tibby? Is this a normal brake pad change as GM and Ford :or are there special issues, special tools or procedures? Are there M wires or other odd items as on older Hundai small sedans? (Which incidentally I have never done). Thanks in advance for any hints tips or news (to me) on this subject. ** Hyundad

RE: 2003 Tiburon brakes

on the tibby the front brakes are very easy...all you will need is a large set of visegrips to push the caliper piston back in...now, the rears DO require special tools..at least on the GTs...not sure of the base models...on the GT you need a tool to push the piston back in because it is a screw in piston, not a push in...the base model is likely the same.
