Sounds like you've done things the wrong way around. You needed to slacken off the handbrake first, then renew the pads, then start the engine and use the brakes a few times to get them to self adjust and then retighten the handbrake. You might get some problems with the self adjusting setting up correctly now if you don't do that

Anyway, depends whether you have no centre arm rest like this

or if you have the centre armrest then you need to remove the rear section
