One question about the anti-rattle clip. I am very familiar which changing brakes pads as I have done it many time on my E46 325Ci. Overall, seems to be a similar setup.
The anti-rattle clip looks quite different though and seems trickier to remove. Do you have input or close-up shots on how it is attached and how to removed.
I am installing Carbotech XP10 in about a week for a track day.
Thanks

Take a minute to observe the clips when you remove the wheels. How they are compressed will become obvious. You just need to apply force to further compress them and they will pop out. I use a couple of relatively big screw drivers to bend them around. Some prying might be necessary.
Also, see below for JAJ's method:
