I don't believe the pins will interchange between two different manufacturers. Girlings generally have a small clip which retains the caliper pin while ATE's have a small compression ring on them which holds them into the calipers.

You may want to try a Volvo dealership '78 - '93 200 series Volvo's utilize Girling calipers for the front brakes.

Sorry this isn't much help.
