Default 2010 Camaro Brembo calipers

Are they the same as the GT500 4 pot calipers? I mean, they look exactly the same, except for the price of course. Has anyone ever tried to fit them on a 2005-09 Mustang? I want the Brembos for the track, but for some reason they are the most expensive of the OEM Brembos. The Camaro and the CTS-V are both cheaper.

Here's a link to a pair on Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-2011-20...NYmox-&vxp=mtr

Never mind, I just looked at both from the back and the bolt angle is different

Here are the photos in case anyone has the same question:

What truly pisses me off is that the Chevy ones are 1/2 the price of the Ford ones and they are actually made in Italy by Brembo. The Ford ones say FoMoCo on the back and I bet they're made in Mexico or Brazil. But then again, the Ford ones are "Shelby" which probably accounts for the markup. Even the 2015 4 pot calipers on the Mustang GT, which are basically the same as the Brembos but without the branding are cheaper than the GT500 ones.

Camaro ones might just be cheaper because there's no market for them. The big demand for the S197 Brembos is all the guys in '05-10's and '11-14 non-Brembo cars that want a bolt-on upgrade over their factory 2 piston calipers that don't cost an arm and a leg. New Camaro didn't debut until 2010, so if they've been coming with Brembos since that point, there's probably little demand.
