Can someone do an easy visual check on their 05-06 brakes for me? Now with Pics.

Can someone do a quick check on their front brakes with 05-06 revised 2 piston calipers (or 06 X). I need to know if the brake pad clip that has the wear indicator and clips to the caliper bracket is facing up or down. I just got a complete set from someone but they are totally dissassembled and fit either way. But I do want to put them on factory style. On my pre-revised 1 piston fronts the clips are up. Thanks. I cant find a picture that is close enough so far.

Wow thanks for everyone running out and checking all at once.
Now really someone please give a quick look. I assume both versions are clips up but I would like some confirmation. Thanks.

I think you answered your own question with UP

EDIT: actually it may depend on which side of the vehicle you are on.... someone get off their lazy butt and check for the guy!
