When changing brake pads on a VE omega following the usual proceedure, I've used on every other car I've had, yes those 18mm caliper support bolts are tight as, but moving on.
The problem I encounted was fitting the pad into the stainless steel guides, they fit into the body of the caliper, It was vey fiddlely, getting those pads in, so much so that I think I've done something wrong, than the holding tabs were rubbing on the disc.
Are they necessary ?
and do you remove them and reinsert when the pad is in position?
