front brake pads

[delawarebill]

had one of the calipers hanging up so i replaced everything on both sides. all went fine. but what i saw on old pads were pins holding the outer pad on. i did get new pins with the pads but didn't have holes drilled. the pads fit into groves so it was confusing weather install pins or not... i didn't. this is driving me nuts now. so should i remove the calipers and drill to install the pins or leave it. i did use the hi temp red rtv to hold the pads.

I'd take them back out and drill the holes.
