Brake Pad Identification Help

I need help figuring out what brakes to order. It's on a 2008 Fit Ex (Mexican model). I figured it would use the same brake pads as the US models, but I was wrong like everything else on it. I'm hoping there might be another model or year that uses these.

I did some research and found there is no equivalent US model brake pad after market or OEM.

I don't like the idea of importing expensive, stock pads from Mexico, so I'm looking at swapping this setup for US stock if it can be had cheaply or upgrading to type-r calipers; something along those lines. Suggestions are welcome. Also, I need to get a picture of the mounting bracket to confirm the US caliper, bracket and rotor will swap over with little or no modification. If I can get someone to confirm the bracket mounting after I get a picture of it up, I would greatly appreciate it.
