they must be screwed in because the e=brake is built into caliper. there is a tool kit that uses the grooves on piston but you can use channel lock pliers to turn piston don't chew up dust seal around piston .the right side is clockwise to turn in i think the left is ccw to turn in when piston starts moving in you going the right way. make sure you line the slots on the piston with the pins on the brake pads if not lined up you never get caliper on good luck ps when all done pump and release the e brake 20 time to self adjust the pistons
