Yes it is.

You get some idea here:

Thing to remember is when pushing the piston back (preferably using the proper tool for it) you should also open the bleed nipple and let the brakes bleed - otherwise you could end-up with air pushed into the ABS unit. Now this does not happen very often, but when it does then you need a visit to a Vauxhall dealer to bleed the ABS.

and make sure that you get the correct disk/pads. the 2 ltr had a different, slightly smaller version on some cars.

You'll also need pad wear sensors - invariably they break off in the old pad

a 99T should take same pads as V6 - its the pre 97 2.0l that had smaller ones.
