Just a little more info. for the ones who still wonder if they should attempt the job...Pulling it completly apart gave me a better understanding of how it all works so for me made it just a bit easyer to get my head around it ..
Here are the pictures of the caliper bolts to be removed. 15mm actually (was close)
.
As others have mention some ajustment can be made through the inspection hole, (as mine had siezed it didn't help) remove the rubber grommets first, and with the help of a torch look through the hole for the adjuster , it can be found towards the rear of the car.
.
The left hand side of the car turns outwards (blade to the base of the toothed adjuster and lever outwards)and is relatively easy to turn . useing a small blade screwdriver
The right hand side is the opposite (top of the adjuster rachet and screw inwards) this I found some what awkward to get any leverage on so I made a small adjuster tool from a tent peg .
:
I just ground a flat blade like end to one end of it then placed it in the vice and bent it on a angle to suit what I needed, worked a treat now has been put into special tool box for next time 3 clicks on the hand brake and and your all locked up
