2009 328xi Front Brake Pads have clips?

Hey all,

I'm in the process of changing front brake pads. For the pad that is across the one that slides into the piston, all of the new pads that I could find at my local stores have two clip-like prongs on it. However, my old ones that came out are flat on the back side. Either I'm spacialy challenged, or it DOESN'T FIT because of those two prongs. HELP!

The inner pads has 3 prongs which go into the piston. The outer pads are flat.

I ended up getting pads from the dealer, which don't have clips.
