Rear Brake Caliper Removal

Rear Brake Caliper Removal
My daughter has a 2006 T5R and I need to put rear brakes on it. Is there an "How To" on this procedure? I took had a problem figuring out how to get the caliper off last night, I took both 13mm bolts out and could not figure out how to get the caliper off the rotor? I have done other volvos and VW's but this one was different. Guess I was being impatient. Also I have read that there is a special tool needed to push the piston back into the caliper. Where do I get this tool? I too tried to use a C clamp but that did not work. Any help would be appreciated.

rear brake caliper removal
Okay, I need to ask a stupid question here. In order to remove the guide pins in my 06' what tool is needed to remove them? There is no bolt head visable. I removed the plastic cap inserts on the inside of the caliper and as best I can tell it might be a allen wrench of some size? Is that correct? or is there some special 12 bit square tool needed to get these loose? I have done other brakes before but this one is set up unlike I have run across before (Now I know why I like my 93' 240) Also is a brake grease recommended on the back side of the pads and on the caliper head?
