1986 300SDL: Brake Pad Pins?

Don't know the exact name for these things but correct me if I'm wrong. I just started to do a brake pad job on my 1986 300SDL and it appears I damaged the end of one of the brake pad pins. I called my MB guy but he doesn't have them and only finds a brake pad kit that contains the pins. Anyone know if just the pins be bought and maybe a part# for them? Thanks.

Brake Pad Pin. FastLane, click "Buy Parts" at top of page, choose Fast Lane, select car and have at it. Or try this link:
http://catalog.peachparts.com/ShopByVehicle.epc?q=1986-Mercedes--Benz-300sdl-Brake&yearid=1986%40%401986&makeid=63%40%40MERCEDES+BENZ%40%40X&modelid=6212%3AED%7C10000100%3AMBC%7C1512%40%40300SDL&catid=241658%40%40Brake&subcatid=241682@@Brake+Pad+Pin+%2D+Rear&mode=PD

About $5 for a single OEM pin, $10 for 4 pins and 2 fresh springs.

Make sure you verify the manufacturer of the calipers before ordering. ATE and Bendix use two different styles of brake pad retainer.

Thank you guys. I broke down and called local MB dealer and they didn't have them. MOF, it'd take 2 days to get them. I've got the Bendix and FWIW, they claim the pins for the Bendix and the ATE are interchangeable. I lucked out and another parts guy is getting them in later today for me. I hope they're the right ones. He had a kit that's similar to what Peachparts shows but they're too short. Those small nipples at the one end of the pin are short on mine, opposed to the long ones shown. We'll see what happens.
