Put the car on jack stands and remove the wheels. Locate the calipers and brake pads and remove the pins and clips from the calipers. Slide out the old brake pads and push the piston back to make room for the new pads and shims. Slide in the new pads and shims and put the pins, clips and cotter pins back in. The front and rear replacement process are very similar, but have different pads and shims.
usually the metal clips are anti-rattle clips to keep the brake pads from chattering in the caliper when braking, they also act as retainers for the pads

It usually clips between the inner pad's back and caliper.
These clips are attached to the front brake pads to keep them from rattling inside the assembly. If you are doing a brake job, just notice how the clips are attached when you remove the old pads, then reattach them. If they are broken or missing, get a new set where you got the pads (the pads generally don't come with clips). don't quite understand question. whre are you trying to put these clips ?
In order to change the brake pads, you must first remove the wheel. Remove the retaining clips and the brake pads will come off. Reverse the process to install the new pads.

brake pads could be worn out. would it be safe to drive for now if the front brake pads are ok?
Ensure the anti rattle clips/springs are attached to the brake pad or it will rattle. Some cheap pads do not vome with these clips/springs.
It would be unusual to have the same brake pads front and back. That is not to say it does not happen but normally the brake pads on the driven wheels are bigger than the passive wheels.
Pad insulators, anti rattle clips, or calipers are loose. The squeal you hear is the result of vibration of the brake pads.
