Use the correct lube for the back of the pad and for the ‘ears’ that fit in the spring clips. You don’t need much. For the inner pad, a bit in the middle as shown and for the outer pad, two strips of lube where the caliper sits.
Fit the pads in the springs, fit the new bolts, tighten everything up, reconnect the EPB connector, then wheels on, drop the jack and torque the wheel nuts to 140Nm. I then work the EPB a couple of times to make sure everything works before heading off.
The fronts are a little different with a different pin configuration and a big spring clip - I’ll do those shortly.
