has anyone found a hex head bolt with which to replace that stupid star head bolt on the brake calipers????

that thing pisses me off. I bough lifetime start tools, but everytime the calipers come off I need to go have my tool replaced.

thanks

Yes, there is a "generic" replacement.....I had to get one due to losing one after having some brake work done (by a shop that will go nameless). I started noticing a grinding noise when I applied the brakes, checked the caliper and it was "flopping around" one one bolt. I removed one of the remaining bolts and took it to the dealership to see if they had one with that "star" fitting. All they had was regular hex-heads, so that's what I have now. Check with the dealership parts dept. or probably most auto parts houses should have a regular hex-head that will fit........
