Actually, that is not the ghetto way, you have to twist the caliper to reseat it on the rear brakes. But the pliers don't work well, cuz you have to push down hard while twisting.
Anyway, I finally got it, so in case anyone cares:
The emergency brake cable runs through a bracket, and I was able to remove the clip that holds it in. then I had plenty of slack to remove the emergency brake cable, and swivel the caliper up to change the pads. While this was on a 94 G20, I'm pretty sure that it will be the same on a 240. I guess I'll find out when I change the pads on my 240 next month.
