ah right thats cool, didnt want to give advice to someone who hasnt done anything before and have them do it wrong, then i get blamed for giving them advice
surely you can change them with the caliper in situ like on the mk1's? take metal clips off, and the little one on the metal bar at the bottom, get a punch and knock the metal bar out, pads should slide out. wind piston back, new pads in, copper grease it up, refit bar and clips. that is unless the 182 are different (never worked on one, just going off the pics and experience with other brakes
)

ive just taken a look at the pic again, i think i can see what you've done, you have taken the 2 main caliper bolts out and tried getting the whole caliper off (hence why the pads are hanging over the edge of the disc)
you wont do it that way with brake pipe and handbrake still on
do it as i said before, loads easier
(LeeP86 is talking about taking the carrier off, not the whole caliper as you have done)

Yeah, he has.
So Put them back on and take off the 2 17mm bolts you can see in the first pic

(handbrake stays as is when doing it in situ, or have i read what you're saying wrong?)
i would have said in situ was the easiest way but everyone does it their own way
edit - yes 2 red bolts, or leave them in and do it as it is (in situ), up to you

yea i no what you mean mate but i was thinking if you undid the red ones there alot less fiddling and less is under stress a tension.
I left the handbrake undone so you could spin the wheel but didnt touch the cable itself.
And yeah the red ones and then its easy!

this is all you need to do
.
there should be a groove cut in the rim of the piston which you can lay a screw driver across and wind the piston back in to the caliper
