Replacement of front brake pads are simple jobs and could be done easily. You would need a G-Clamp to compress the piston prior to reassembling.

Most vehicles uses a caliper that clamps over the brakes pads but for Daihatsu and some Toyota models, 2 pins are used to hold the pads.

If you look at the construction, you should be able to perform the job if you are a DIY guy.
