I have changed the rear caliper bolts one time, and the rear bolts (old style) were about 5 mm shorter than the front caliper bolts.
I tried to order some more rear caliper bolts (PN 999 067 042-09) awhile back and the part number came up the same as the front caliper bolts (999 067 047-09).
Has anyone experienced problems with using the 5 mm longer bolts in the rear calipers? Do the heads stick out since the bolts are longer? They probably fit just fine since Porsche changed the part number.

Your dealer don't have all the information.
Those ceramic caps (plastic would melt, you know that) are available as pairs. They are isolators to avoid excessive heat transfer to the calipers.
Here are the part# (for cars with red calipers)
Front:
928 351 917 00 (44mm caps) (2)
951 351 917 00 (36mm caps) (2)
There 6 caps per calipers at the front
Rear:
You know you did not break the rear ones, so I won't give you part numbers.

Austin, I think that is why... the isolators are a every few year fix and the dust boots are every year dor DE. Racing, isolators are annual and boots are... often.
