Default Honda noob, needs help with brake caliper bracket. overseas

Hey guys, Im new to the site. and need some help. I have a 1992 honda civic hatch. US spec. 1.5L. Heres my story. Im stationed in germany and I wanted to replace my rotors pads the whole nine and well as I was removing the bolt on bottom of the caliper bracket it snapped off. I need a new bracket (front-left) that is. I found someone thats selling them over here and he wants 350EURO which is about 400 bucks. Dude is high as a kite.

Ive been looking at brackets online and im lost there are so many defferent one. Im looking for someone to point me in the right direction. Im going to describe it the best i can along with pics. These calipers you can flip up on a pin. So far all the brackets ive seen havent came with a pin. just the bracket. is there a pin kit does the pin come out. the bolt that I broke is a long shank bolt. I found a eurp spec honda in a junk yard (1993) and removed the lower bolt and it was short and stubby (lol) anyway the car in unsafe to drive and id like to get it fixed so I can visit family here any help would help alot. Thanks in advance. and yes I own a honda and a camaro for the record lol

Thanks for the Ton of replies and the help. I figured it out. I knew there was a reason why at every car meet the honda guys had no idea what they were talking about.

WTF did you expect on a Sunday and not even two hours passing? Is there a paid support membership on here I don't know about that qualifies you for on-demand tech support any time of the day or night?

Do you think we all ******* live on these forums? This isn't a 24-7 tech line. If it were, we'd all be indian and speaking broken english.

www.rockauto.com Click on Honda to 1992 to Civic to 1.5L L4 to Brake/Wheel Hub to Caliper Bracket.
