I don't know of an instructional site but if you can do pads and bleed brakes you should have no problems. It is actually easier and faster than puttin in pads if you have the tools and some experience.

This might help some, scroll down to where they're actually removing the caliper, it's two bolts. You don't need to mess with the hub or dust shield. Before you unbolt the caliper it would be easier to remove the brake line. Clamp the flex line before removing with some vice grips. Installation is the reverse of removal. Bleed brake system afterwards. If it's never been done flush the brake hydraulic system, you'd be surprised what fresh fluid does for the pedal feel.
