SOURCE: waht size allen key to remove front brake calipers
On my Golf 1.9TDI (2005) both top and bottom Calliper fastenings have a 7mm Allen bolt thus you will need a non standard 7mm Allen Key not 12 point

Once the car is jacked up, remove the front tires, then whith a 12 wrench key, remove the bolt that is located on the rear side of the caliper, not the one holding the brake fluid line buth the one right next to it. Pry the brake pad holder off and then remove the brake pads themselves. You will need to press the caliper's piston in, to be able to fit new brake pads since new pads will be thicker.
SOURCE: how take off pins not bolts on caliper 87 Ford Ranger front brake
The pins / wedges just tap out use a scewdriver on the metal edge of the pin just tap it out to the rear and when putting them back in just tap them back in from the front. You will see they are diamond shape and metal cased around rubber very easy to do just take your time.

I had the same problem ... seemed the assembly was too thick to fit back in. I ended up nipping off the end hook (with a grinder) of one of the pads so it could slide in. Once in, the pad can't come out anyway.
