GTO brakes on a '96 Mustang

I used to own a 2004 GTO, and bought a set of used take off brakes from a vendor on Ebay. I never got around to putting them on the car (I didn't know if I would keep it), and sold the car. Now, I have a '95 Mustang GT, and I'm wondering if I can do something with the GTO brakes.

It's my understanding that all the PBR calipers are the same. The stock Mustang Cobra brakes are PBR's, so wouldn't I be able to bolt the GTO calipers onto my Mustang spindles? If not what is involved? I see the upgrade kits all the time for the Cobra brake swap, and they don't appear to come with brakets. Just new rotors, calipers and hoses. If I can just buy new rotors and hoses, and make the calipers work, I'm going to do it. I'll just grind off the "O" or the entire "GTO" and paint them.

I would just sell the brakes on Ebay, but I hate that place now after they started creating new fees and Paypal rules.

The PBR calipers are the same except for the bracket they slide on - this is the part that allots for the different diameter rotors...
