As per Frank, the good old circlip works great, however, the e-clip serves 
two functions. One is to hold the cylinder from falling off the backing 
plate, the other is to hold it tightly to the backing plate with a spring 
effect.  A washer behind the circlip will help hold the cylinder flush with 
the backing plate.  Or you can pull out the locating pin, drill out 
slightly, tap the hole, and mount with a bolt.

If you think mounting the wheel cylinder with the e-clips is tough with the 
backing plate off of the car, just try doing it with them ON the car!
