Default Help with 2008 S Rear Brakes

Trying to change my rear pads and rotors and have found that all of the youtube videos show a caliper clip which the 2008 s doesnt appear to have. In my case I am removing the caliper plunger bolts which seem to just turn and not come out. When they appear losened, the pads are still firmly compacted against the rotor and the rotor wont budge. The parking brake isnt on and the car is in neutral. I have changed a lot of brakes on various cars so not a total newbie. Confused.
