Well, since no one is forthcoming with this information, I found out today that the allen wrench on the caliper pins is apparently 7 mm, a size not usually offered on most sets. If you have information to the contrary, let me know. I had the guy at the parts store pull a hardware kit and that was the size. Hope this helps someone.

You shouldn't need to remove the calipers altogether just to replace the pads. You have remove the split pins or retaining springs on the old pads, then prize back the caliper pistons enough to remove them. Then push the pistons back some more enough to get the new pads in. Then reassemble and test.
