I gave you a thumbs up, but there are two things that at least need to be addressed that are missing and/or incorrect.
First thing, spray at the beginning the calipers with brake cleaner, and as you go along taking them apart. Have some cardboards under them to absorb the dirty asbestos that is going to drip down to the floor.
The second thing, remove the brake reservoir cap, gave rags around it for any over spill. When pushing in the pistons, pressure will make the oil go back to the reservoir, and not as he says, by placing a C-clamp to prevent the other piston from going out. He is lucky no damage occur from a blown seal, line, etc. Just remove that cap, no need to clamp the other piston.
And a fan, lot of ventilation, try not to breathe any of that dust, not healthy at all.
Besides the above, it is a good video, I followed it to change mine. I also did the rears, recommend taking pictures as you go, the rears have these clips that if you don't pay attention, will be tricky to mount them back.

What about the screws to secure the rotor?

[@drgta6]

There aren't screws to 'secure the rotor'.

[@TM-fx5le]

@@drgta6 You must be a little confused, there are.

[@drgta6]

@@TM-fx5le I just changed my brake pads and rotors..no screws to secure the rotors.

[@TM-fx5le]

@@drgta6 They would have been removed in previous servicing, Lexus placed a screw on each rotor during manufacturing. Serves no purpose other than to keep the rotor in place as the caliper is being mounted, which is why a lot of people just end up biffing them.
