Thanks Sean.
And now for a little OT.
I've always loved your avatar. Check out this bad boy:
Don't have one but I recently acquired a DP-12. The DP-12 is pretty gnarly.

access for the auto is hidden under the heat shields for the resonators ,
so you can move the heat shields away from the mounted position and get to the rear pinch bolt.
that said if the MMs are good, then you may not have the room to do this as the pipes will be closer to the shields thus requiring to drop out the rear pipes to gain clearance

Bump back to page 1.
Found a young S4 with a loose rear pinch bolt a couple of weeks ago.

Suggest you get these from Roger unless you cannot wait. Correct steel grade very important.

But, yes, 12.9 is the grade of steel. Grade 10 shalt thou not use, neither use thou grade 8. Thou should not browse grade 8 or grade 10 bolts, lest thou immediately thereafter browse from the grade 12.9 bin. Once a grade 12.9 bolt is selected then hand thou the bolt towards thy cashier, who if being not naughty shall charge you for it.
