New Caliper Guide Bolts - Torque and Questions



I have a new set of calipers to use when i reinstall my brakes tomorrow however pagid have supplied some caliper guide bolts as well as lucas (girling) in their boxes. Which should i use?

Secondly, how tight in terms of torque do they need to be, there not that big as far as bolts go so i'm worried about overtightening or snapping them.

Lastly, should i use thread lock on them or not bother. Haven't bothered before but i noticed some people use it.

Thanks
 
40Nm for the caliper guide bolts. They should be replaced every time thats why they supply new ones.

I'd stick locking compound on there not needed and I've not sometimes on my car in the past but why risk it.
