I’m going to try to use the old break pad to compress both pistons at the same time. I’m glad they are the kind of pistons that you have to rotate to xompress
So I'm about to do this and looked up the torque specs in a 2007-12 RDX service manual - 101 lb ft for the caliper bracket bolts, 37 lb. ft. for the flange bolt (the one that allows the caliper to be tilted up).
All that work and new parts and you use the crappy cheap semi metallic 25$ brake pads. Those eat rotors so bad, get the yellow box for 50$. Also don’t just pull the pins out like that pop the lip off the rubber boot so it doesn’t fully pull the rubber stretching it to the max and beyond causing it to rip. I LOVE the fact you state what tools needed I have been working off my motorcycle lately and love just taking what’s needed not an entire tool box making a 50 pound back pack. Should always clean wire brush everything and use grease on the pins and top and bottom of the brake pad ears so everything can slide easy and not lock up causing just the inner or outer pad to be eat up more then the other. Use an impact screw driver vs the air hammer that way it doesn’t damage the little screw then have to drill it out. Lastly 99% of the time the caliper bracket bolts are the same size as the lug nuts not always but more then not. Love your video man keep up the great work.

You ALWAYS clean/spray brake cleaner on new rotor to remove the packaging oil , otherwise youll warp rotor when brakes are applied
You forgot to include torque specs.
