I think the title covers this one. Honda's are famous for this so I made this little video to help you should you be in this situation. Wear your safety glasses when you do this or whenever you hit things, getting crap in your eye sucks, trust me. Impact drivers can be found at your local tool supplier. If you don't have a hammer I don't know what to tell you. This doesn't seem to require a long explanation so I'm going to stop typing now.

DIY: Drilled/Slotted Rotor Install
Check out www.88rotors.com! Great customer service, quick shipping, AWESOME warranty, and all for a sweet price. What are you waiting for?
In this 2 part series, I show you how to install new brake rotors on your car. The task might seem complicated when you think about it, but it is actually very simple.
I did this install on my 1993 Nissan 240sx, however, this method can be applied to a plethora of cars that are equipped with disc-brakes.
Some cars have a more complex braking system where a drum is used for e-brake and a disc is used for pedal brake in the rear. A good example of this is the Nissan 300zx (Z32). If this is the case for your vehicle, your installation will be different.
I see that a lot of people are skeptical of which way to install slotted brake rotors. Here is the answer; the orientation of the slots does not matter unless the brake rotors have directional vanes in them. Always check any instructions that come with your rotors and follow manufacturer's instructions. The rear rotors I bought have no vanes in them, and the front rotors have straight vanes (not directional).
This article should clear up any remaining doubts: http://www.zeckhausen.com/how_to_properly_install_rotors.htm
