Quite a simpe job mate
£20 seems a bit much but i forgot to look what car it is.
Sc motor factors do all four pads for £13.50
Depnds on brands, green stuff ones are expensive.
Undo wheel nuts
jack up car
take wheels off
Unscrew 2 allen key bolts
pull caliper off, will be a little stuck on there.
Will be a pin or locking mech for the pads remove that
pull pads out
Then open out the calipers with large mole grips or something like it
Put copper grease on the BACK of the pads where the piston will touch
then clip them back in
slide the caliper over the disc and redo all the allen keys up with copper grease and you know the rest, you know most of what i told you i just got a little carried away

do not mess about with brakes if you have no experience of them
