John's advice below is spot on. Exactly how I always do it.

I don't understand how you'd get a C-clamp in there anyhow.. unless, perhaps the caliper is not bolted back up...

If that's the case, bolt that caliper back up, install your old pads, and do exactly what John said... Ideally, of course, you'd have done that with the old rotor still on the car. But, the risk of scratching or warping the new rotor is pretty slim.
