Help with brake pad install 90 camry

I'm replacing my rotors and pads, rotors are in fine but I bought Hawk Performance HB401F.587 HPS Brake Pad


First thing I notice is that they are smaller height wise than my original brake pads, and that they have a tab sticking up...

Can someone give me a hint on how to install them because it won't just slide in like the current ones.

Here are the pics:

Wrong Pads

Looks like they simply sold you the wrong pads.

At least this link indicates the pads you mention are rear pads for a '97-'99 V6 Camry.

Darn it, you are right, both tirerack and amazon said that it fits my i4 camry but apparently it doesn't....

Bought this 2 and a half months ago doubt tirerack will help even though they said it fits....
