I know this is a boxster forum so pretend this is a question about an 06 Boxster

I am trying to replace my front pads on my 06 cayman with the EBC red pads.
The issue comes in with the metal retainer clip due to the way the pads are designed see picture there is no way to compress that clamp to fit back under the retaining pin. I know some of you have a cayman or two am I missing something here?
OEM pad vs EBC Pad very different casings I have verified its the right pad.
The rears went in with no issue
