Comprehensive S4+ bolt lengths and torque values spreadsheet

This is brilliant, thanks guys for all the hard work!
BUT - the conversion factor is WRONG for the NM sheets. For some it is 0.74 which is correct, but for some it is 0.54, for instance Lug Nuts 96Ft Lbs - 176Nm
I can supply a corrected version to replace the GoogleDocs version if needed.

Hey Rob, working on my front suspension and sure appreciate the torque data, have it right on top of my workbench.
Something I must have missed on the bolt sizes ... my LCA bolts take a 19 MM socket ... when the guide says "M12" for these, what does that mean exactly? Is that the shank of the bolt?

This is VERY IMPORTANT to remember when working with bolts not specifically referenced on the list or the WSM's. eg: A 6mm bolt with a 10mm hex head. 33lbs/ft generic 10mm bolt torque is quite a bit higher than the typical 6lbs/ft for the 6mm bolt into aluminum.

I have roughly 40 additional bolt specs to add to this, mostly interior and dash stuff, perhaps over the holidays.
But for a new level of OCD, wait 'til you see what Jim Doerr and I are up to.

Bring me a car to completely disassemble and I'll take a picture of every bolt
Nothing that multimedia, just a truly comprehensive, every nut-bolt-and-washer on-the-car list with dimensions, part #'s and torque values, so that one could put together an accurate and complete pile of hardware for a full-bore restoration. No rocket science to it, just requires a laptop, factory documentation, and being captive at many kids' sporting events.

e.g. "Norma 18" - which locations should it be in PET
I have a list from my current '87 in a spreadsheet, but the car has (had) a lot of clamps in the wrong places due to a warranty replacement block, so my spreadsheet isn't correct (and a lot of the bolts were in the wrong place too grr..)
