You can reuse them, just clean off all of the old thread-locker on them.

New bolts should be like a dollar or two at a dealership. I just bought four brandy new ones a week or two ago. Steingold or Tasca should have them pretty cheap. How I miss living in Providence...

Otherwise, if you're sourcing these from a hardware store, do remember this very important bit of info: Metric "class 8" is not equivalent to SAE "Grade 8". Metric hardware uses a different set of numbers. You need "Class 10" here in Metric. Stainless steel won't do either.

I wouldn't trust anything less for brakes.
