2Car Pros,

Can you tell me the torque specs for the front caliper bolts and the caliper bridge bolts for the 2007 Mazda 3i? So far, my web search is drawing a blank. Also, can you recommend a good DYI repair manual for this model? Haynes does have one and I haven't found a Chilton's one for sale, either. Mazda Owner in Atlanta.
