Smile help changing brakes

my 2003 disc series II needs new brakes.
I don't have a lot of experience changing brakes, but I thought with help from you guys, I could get through it.
I purchased from British Atantic a set of four pads and discs.
I bought Ferodo Premier pads with the discs.
I hope what i bought is good?

Does anyone have any step by step instructions they would be willing to share?
Do I need any special tools?
More importantly, and advice?
Thanks for anything and everything anyone is wiling to share.

Red face next

So, I changed out the brakes (Ferodo pads with new rotors) and blead the system. New Dot 4 sythetic fluid is in place.
Mike - you were a real big help.

The brakes are much better. No noise and more solid.

Now, I may have angered the three amigos.
Prior to the brake job the three amigos would come on very intermitenly
No real pattern.

Now the three amiogs are coming on more frequently.

Any advice?

I saw a post (Mike) in which you recommend a "amigos" type code reader and clearer.
Should I get it and see what it will do?

How about a code reader all together?
Like what kind should I get, etc.
