Default need help with front brake rotors on 1995 accord

I am going to be working on my wife's 1995 accord tonight.

I made the (wrong) assumption that they would be as easy & similar to my prelude brakes.

after reading a few threads, it seems this is wrong, and that removing the front brake rotor is quite a PITA.

I find it hard to be believe that honda would make you press out the wheel bearing just to get the rotor off. any tips?

yep, i had every nut and bolt off the rotor, enough that the rotor would spin freely, but i couldnt get it off, i found out the hard way.

i believe it is called "banged in"

you pretty much need brute force or leverage to take it off.
