In the past there hasent been much luck with hardwear as part of a sub-assembly... for instance there was this bolt that was needed for a crash beam in a front door... bolt not available... had to get an entire door shell !!!
I have some hope as Brembo is involved... in the past i was also able to get specs for stuff... ie pitch, shoulder, grade, length, torque etc etc..
stand by for more info...
personally, i like taking the caliper off using theses bolts... it so much easier / cleaner

Ok boys and girls....
2 avenues both came up with the same answer....... "you need what bolt?? (pause) (silence) oh boy, your not supposed to remove that one for service !!!! we dont have a source for that bolt....( cries in the backround)
I still am waiting on the third source... (BMW proper) but i have a suspicion we are gonna be sh&t out of luck......
ill have my car in the shop tomorrow ( maybe) and ill pull one out and mike it up and see what stampings are on it etc etc etc ..
Technically it is mearly a hex head shouldered metric cap bolt... i think all we need to do is confirm the grade and order some from MSC or Grainger
keep standing by...
