Hello,
I believe a 2003 should have the vented rear rotors. So that would explain it. The thinner rotor allowed the ears of the pad to slide in and off the caliper bracket. If you take the caliper off and look at the opening in the bracket it should be wide enough for the vented rotor to fit in there which I believe is 20mm. The bracket for a solid rotor would be about wide enough to fit a 12mm rotor. Good Luck, Bernie
