I always removed the inner bolt, its the easier and fastest way to change pads... trust me
that's when you change two of them (when you suppose to change two at the same time)

But... is it the correct way? It must be hard to file down that abutment bracket with a caliper attached to it...

It's 4 bolts, easiest job on the car. Take the extra minute to do it the right way.

huh? like I said I tried both ways and the way I do it, take out two inner bolts and you have whole caliper in your hand and you can change both pads easily. That's how smart European people do... trust me
