Icon5 92 Civic caliper bolt size? (Did a search couldn't find anything)

If someone has already posted it in a different thread then i apologize. i used the search function and came up with nothing. Maybe i didn't search hard enough i don't know. BUT i JUST did a complete rebuild of my 92 civic (i'll post pictures later) drove it from my dad's to my place after putting new suspension on it and got to my place. Went to leave to go to the store and my driver side front tire locks up in reverse. Forward it works fine. Did some searching and i'm pretty sure it was this forum i found the answer. I'm missing my lower caliper bolt. Yay go me... I'm 100% positive i put it back in and tightened it. Really need to get it going again before this weekend and i can't find the bolt size to go to the store and buy the bolt. Would rather not order online (takes to long even if it is cheaper to get to me) as well as i'd rather not get one from a parts store they want an arm and a leg for the smallest crap.

It's a 92 civic sedan, thought the model was EX, the engine isn't original to the car itself. The brake pads that fit the calipers are SI pads. The previous owner apparently pieced this darn thing together (not to mention welded the harmonic balancer to the crankshaft and i had to replace EVERYTHING). I'll be posting a different thread to show what all i've done, it's been a process, but right now i just need the darn bolt size. Help?

Here is the parts diagram: https://www.hondapartsnow.com/parts-...ont-brake.html
Sounds like you're talking about #30: 12x21 mm.

Yes, it's the same bolt. The simplest way is probably to get it from a dealer, online or otherwise. Good luck!

Don't use a generic bolt.

Buy the OEM bolt. Honda hardware are uniquely designed to function in the specific part of the assembly.
