Try get a hold of a FSM and it tells you in there. There are many links to download it. Use the search button.

if you are just changing the caliper and not the carrier bracket then that shit is mad easy. its only a pair of bolts (14mm or 17mm that are holding it on… then you have the e-brake line and the brake line… disco those and its off

put the other one on, bleed (the brake lines as well as your hands likely), go

Do you have the whole assembly? Including the bracket that holds the pads?
