Replacing brake pads can be tricky but not impossible. Here's a quick guide: 1. Lift the front end of the car and secure it with jack stands. 2. Remove the wheel and locate the brake caliper. 3. Use a socket wrench to remove the caliper bolts and then pull the caliper off the rotor. 4. Remove the old brake pads and replace them with the new ones. 5. Put the caliper back on and tighten the bolts. 6. Repeat for the other wheel.

I recommend watching a few tutorials on YouTube before attempting to replace your brake pads. It's always good to have a visual guide. Also, make sure to check the condition of your rotors while you're at it. If they're worn, consider replacing them as well.

As mentioned by others, changing brake pads is not a difficult task. However, if you're not comfortable working on your car, I suggest taking it to a mechanic. It's better to be safe than sorry.
