Default Ordered Hawk Ceramics, do I need new clips?

I ordered Hawk Ceramic pads for the front and rear of my 2007 coupe. A buddy of mine asked if they came with new "clips". Anyone know if they do? Do I need new clips?

Thanks,
Jeff

Default no new clips

I installed at set last winter and did not need any new parts at all. They are a direct replacement on my 06 C6. I am very happy with the new pads!

enjoy

I just put on GM ceramics (AC Delco Durastop) and they came with new clips. They're exactly the same as the original clips and I've heard that you should always use new clips.
