its as easy as changing the standard discs and calipers. other than drilling out the caliper mounting holes to allow the fitment of the bigger caliper bolts which i assume you have measured up for size against the original ones. 8)

They basically bolt straight on!

All you have to do is to drill the hub out to make it bigger as the ST170 bolts are bigger!
