Camshaft cap bolts

[Howlinator]

I replaced valve stem seals on my '09 i-dtec yesterday, but when I was putting the cam caps back on, 2 of the bolts snapped. I managed to get them out, but does anyone know where I can order a new set of these bolts?

Also, I was following the torque spec I found online, which was 22Nm. Can anybody confirm that this is the correct torque? Strange that the first 2 bolts I tried to tighten snapped.

22nm isn't much and it's surprising they snapped. Maybe they were over tightened previously.

I'd get new ones from a honda dealer

I was onto my local Honda dealer and they want €155 for the full set of 22 bolts. Seems a bit pricey for some bolts, no?
