You don't need to remove the caliper itself, just the pins and then yank the pads out. Walking the pad out a little bit at a time on each side helps.

Just found that for ya. Watch that, our front brakes are very similar. The only thing I'd do different is press the pad against the caliper carefully with a flat blade before removing pad. Will make removal easier.
