12mm X 1.5 Heli coil install kit?
Does anyone out there have a 12X1.5 heli coil install kit that I could borrow? I stripped out the threads in my brake caliper. Steel bolt-aluminum caliper and 115 ft lbs of torque and now this. Thanks, Brian
Yeah, You've Probably Never Heard Of Me.

I re-checked the service manual and it does say 115 ft/lbs for the torque on the bolts. I found a kit at Monument Car Parts for $38. So I went ahead and got it. It wasn't worth the time to drive around in Bay area traffic to save a few bucks. But if anyone else has the same problem hit me up because I now have a few helicoils left over. Hopefully no one will need them.
