Default Brembo calipers

Hello all, I am going to be changing my 09 Ultra's front brake pads soon and having never delt with the newer Brembo calipers is there anything I need to look out for? I assume you just take the mesh cover off, pull the little spring clip out of the pin and undo the pin with 5mm Allen key but what then? Thanks in anticipation.

Remove the calipers. If you've added any brake fluid to the system, you may need to drain some off to make room for the new pads. Apply pressure to the old pads to push pistons back into the calipers (this is making room for the thicker friction material on the new pads). Remove the old pads and clean the inside of the calipers thouroughly. Install new pads and reassemble. Make sure you pump the brakes a few times once calipers are re-installed before riding.
