first thing is first jack up car and support with jack stands. then take off the wheel. this video will help

next disassemble the braking system, take off the brake pads and mark then and then take off the calipers. this should leave the rotor left, of course the rotor will probably be jammed on there due to all the wonderful stuff on the road during the winter and rust.

so if you have a torch heating it up could help with prying it off. be careful not to ruin anything.
