Yes I only have experience directly buying & replacing the front bolts, for the 126. Why wouldn't the rears be available as well?

For the 560SEC, for example, the part number for the rear caliper bolt is 123 423 00 71. Cost via mail order vendor the the MB part is $4.32 each.

For the 500E, for example, the part number for the rear caliper bolt is 000 423 17 71. Cost via mail order vendor for the MB part is $3.12 each.

The EPC seems to show that the rear caliper bolts are available for most if not all models. Certainly, reusing the old ones is an option, but they are quite cheap to replace with new. I just recently did this when I replaced the front rotors & pads on my 560SEC.

Cheers,
Gerry
