Default Need help with brake pads!!

I need help with my 1.1 Saxo. I bought new pads and they came as a pair of pads in each packet (A left pad and a right pad like in the picture below).

But when I took the old ones off they were both the same pad (Both the left pad/Right pad). I thought nothing of it and tried fitting the new pads and the one doesn't fit quite right and wont let me put the retaining clip back in.

Have I done it wrong and was only supposed to use one pad from each pack?
Please some one let me know, thanks!

Did you wind the piston back in?

Yeah, the piston is all the way back in. I think I know what the problem is and i'll have another whack at it when i'm home. I'll keep you posted on how it turns out.
