Alignment spec's after camber/caster repair bolt, I screwed up

This is on a 2005 C55 but the repair bolt I'm assuming relates to other cars.

Anyways the dealer said I needed the repair bolts to get the alignment back in to spec. So I purchased the repair bolts for the torque strut/radius rod and the cross strut/transverse link. The bolts I removed from the torque strut looked like the new bolts so I'm guessing they were installed already but I replaced them anyways, the cross strut bolts didn't have the cut outs in the bolts so I installed the repair bolts. After all the work is completed I took the car back to the dealer to pay for the 2nd alignment. I was told the repair bolts were not installed correctly and they would have to be adjusted.

Here is my alignment sheet,



It looks like every thing is ok besides the front caster. Now I was thinking of doing a 180 degree switch on both torque strut repair bolts but than I was thinking the car would just start pulling the other way.

Any advise on which repair bolts to flip around? or any thing else I should know?
