You did a great job with the tutorial & we appreciate your effort.....but

The factory shop manual gives specific measurements to make sure it's done right.
It's like the difference in checking timing stretch by lining up the cam marks or checking at 2mm valve lift. Will the other way work? Sure it will. Will the masurements be accurate? Who knows.

Using a dial indicator on the rotor isn't hard at all.

Also I don't care what car your working on brake components need to be cleaned & greased. A can of brake cleaner goes a long way.
