you have to remove the hub and press the bearings out to remove the disc plus you can damged the bearings doing it

hrough the front of the disc you have 13mm bolts to undo the disc dont undo these until last you also have some holes in the holes 45 torx bolts x5 or
6 undo the driveshaft nut then wack the poo out of the disc or buy the tool that bolts in the back to push out the bearing

After the last few pair of discs I fitted I've decided that in future I will budget for new bearings, hubs and discs as it's likely to be
cheaper in the long run . They were all done using the laser tool as well

I agree with the above regarding the bearing, if the bearing has never been replaced before or it's been in a while & wasn't fitted
with a smear of copper grease around the bore that locates it in the upright then getting it out intact will be lucky. If it's seized in badly
getting it out at all will be a fight! When it all goes as it should it's not bad to do but as with most things in life...
I think the RWD is the same with a stub shaft in place of the driveshaft to keep it all together.

There's a pdf of how to do it with the Laser tool, makes it
sound simple 
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
