Most hondas work like this... I dont personally own an 03 but I would suspect that pad change is simular.

For the v6 about $40 per side

I know on the 03 V6 the caliper just flips up. I had to change the rear pads first, and the fronts still have a ways to go. Have you checked the rear pads? I know it's not normal, but the rears seem to wear quicker than the fronts on 7th gen Accords. You can get the pads from here http://www.handa-accessories.com/accord.html , cheaper than at the dealership.

PS: Don't forget to use the shims with the anti-squeal paste.
