Here you go :

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"

myClef = \markup \magnify #3 \lower #1 \scale #'(0.8 . 1) "G" % or your
\char ##xyyyy
mrRest = \markup "R" % or your \char ##xyyyy

{
   \once\override Staff.Clef.stencil = #(lambda (grob)
         ly:clef::print (grob-interpret-markup grob myClef))
   c'' 
   \override Rest.stencil = #(lambda (grob)
           ly:clef::print (grob-interpret-markup grob mrRest))
   c\rest
}
