Just be real sure to protect paint, tires chrome, EVERYTHING from drippage.

RE: installing apes
I would recommend draining it.
Disconnect it phrom the caliper, then loosen the cap on the MC and let gravity take it's course. Then disconnect it phrom the MC. Hook the new one up, and bleed it. Really not to difficult, and it's better then taking a chance getting brake phluid on yer paint.
