Default Fire Extinguisher Install Reuse seat bolts?

I'm about to install my Fire extinguisher bracket under the passenger seat of my 2010 Cayman S

In doing a little research to prepare I found that it is required to replace the seat bolts (one time use only)

However in calling around to dealers none of them stock them and one parts guy said in 15 years working in Porsche parts, no one has ever asked for them.

Are people not taking the 'one time use' directive seriously?

So you are not sure about your research? I've never heard of those bolts being single use but I'm willing to learn. BTW - if you really need them, order them from SunCoastParts.com.

I don't think they are single use, they may say that if there's threadlocker applied?
