Front Brake Pads Done, but, A Question?

Maybe a little paranoid about getting this job right, so I want to ask -

1. The Torx bit bolts on the driver side didn't go back in as far as they were when I removed them. The distance inside their rubber "booty's" changed by 1/8" - 1/4" inch, but they are definately in as far as the threads could go - there's a "stop" to how far they go into the bracket, and I reached that stop.

2. Should these bolts be secured with lock-tight to keep from vibrating out, or reset after some drive time?

The job was easy once you see it for yourself.
