take the old pads and put them on without the bolts going through them and take a big pair of plyers and squeeze it so the piston goes in.

I usually just pry the pads apart (carefully so you dont damage the new pads) with a skrew driver with the dullest edges possible. When they're open slide the brakes on over the rotor.
