Thread: Brake caliper mounting bolts
Post: Brake caliper mounting bolts
Never bothered either maybe they want the bolts to get changed because it's more of a hassle to clean the old thread locking compound when you get access to them! |

I'll tale pictures of the car before removing them (I think they are -30mm) and will know more about them after I take them off, all I know about them so far is that they are red! |
