Default Clicking noise when I brake (Already STFA)

got new ECS Slotted/X-drilled rotors and HPS pads in the front installed a couple weeks ago and ever since then I get a clicking noise. It seems like its coming from the front and it sounds like the clicking noise when you lock your wheel. The same symptoms as others have reported.

Judging from my search, its due to the brake pads shifting when the wheel is turned, but I believe it also occurs occasionally when I'm just braking straight. Has anyone found a solution?

Also, I got it installed at some local shop. I'm thinking about giving them a call to diagnose the problem and have them take care of it. As long as they don't charge me =\. Any help is appreciated.

Are the spring clips still there?
