Yeah, just use a flat blade screwdriver to prise it off (it might end-up down the road though) and use some pliers to pry it back in place.  :y

Sorry one last question.... when I remove the two bolts so I can remove the caliper (7mm allen head I think) they come out and are like little shiny cylinders.... i'm presuming these are affectively the sliders and will need lubricating??
