I don't mean to be rude.......but because you are asking this question I maybe wouldn't do it without some guidance from someone who works a bit more regularly on cars, especially with the back ones as they are a little trickier, they can bind if you don't get it right.Joined the BMWX5 45e group

I would be carefull removing shoes. Getting them back on is not easy if you haven't done that before.

Maybe add, back off the brake shoe adjuster before fitting new shoes, then replace disk and readjust shoes before fitting pads and sensor
