Default 92 sc300 front and rear rotor removal?

Can someone tell me how the rotors are removed from the 92 sc300. I know the emergency brake assembly is incorporated into the rear disc brake system, and I can see the small access hole on the front of the rear rotor hub, but I can not see any bolts through the access hole. I probably need to release the emergency brake pads but I do not know how. I also need to know how to remove the front rotors? I appreciate all the help I can get.

Just remove the 2 14mm bolts that hold the caliper and then remove the 2 17 mm bolts that hold the caliper bracket. Make sure your e-brake is released(from inside the car), then rotor will comes out. Do the same on the front.

Might be a silly thing to mention, but on my LS, there are at least 2 (maybe 4, i don't remember) philips head screws that help hold the rotor to the hub...you may need a sledge if your regular hammer is too small...no joke...

first remove the caliper 2 bolts i think 14mm. then there are 2 threaded hols in the rotor they are 12mm i believe. use a 12mm bolt to get the rotor loose from the hub. make sure the ebrake is off and then wiggle the rotor off no need to bang anything..
