Ah, bolt extractor, not stud extractor. Like a socket that you bash over the outside of a bolt head and as you turn they tighten on the outside. Slightly less risky. I’ve used them on broken Jag wheel nuts to good effect.

I went to a local engineering supplies place and the 4 bolts were less than £10.

Sheesh. 'Rear Brake Caliper Carrier Bolts', or as regular people call them, 'Bolts'.

M10 fine thread, high tensile 10.9 having just recently failed to buy any locally from 4 different fastener suppliers in Glasgow I ended up getting the ones I needed on eBay
The supplier was called high grade steel and they were delivered in 2 days and a hell of a lot cheaper, it was M12 bolts I needed, cost £18.80 for 4 inc delivery, yours should be cheaper
Have you got the old bolts out yet?
I recently used one of these tools to get out a very stuck and rounded bolt.
No, not got them out yet. Last night was a tad warm for such shenanigans, 34 degrees with 85% humidity. It was an evening of sitting by the pool, not daring to move for fear of sweating like a pig trotting up Melton Mowbray high street.
Today is forecast to be cooler with a little breeze so tonight might be the one.
Interesting you resorted to the bay, guess I will have to as well. I am going to call the main dealer though to get a sighting lap on their prices.
I also found another site in the UK, BoltWorld . Co . UK. They seem to have loads of fasteners at decent prices too. But big quantities, like 100 minimum. So that would be 200 for me as these are different lengths top and bottom. Plus shipping to Spain, and plus import charges. Oh and customs delays. But this site might be useful to others on here.
