How do you replace rear brakes on Honda Civic?

To replace the rear brakes on a Honda Civic, start by lifting the vehicle and removing the rear wheel. Next, remove the caliper bolts and slide the caliper off the rotor; support it with a bungee cord to avoid stressing the brake line. Take out the old brake pads, and if necessary, compress the caliper piston using a C-clamp to fit the new pads. Finally, install the new pads, reattach the caliper, put the wheel back on, and lower the vehicle.
