Installing Pads in the PBR rear caliper??

I know this should be "duh", but I just need a bit of help. I bought a set of LT1 PBR calipers for my rear axle and just can't seem to figure out how (a) the calipers unbolt from the bracket and (b) how the pads are secured (positioning and the clips/spring-thing on top).

Any help would be great! Pics would be awesome, too! I've done countless brake jobs in the past, but this is the first PBR setup I've ever dealt with and the calipers were unloaded when I got them so I've had no reference to go by.
