Exclamation Need a little help from a GSL owner

Hey, I just finished a swap on my LE to a GSL rear end. I got rebuilt callipers and found some brackets but I never got the bolt/pins for the rear callipers. I have checked with mazda and autoparts stores in my area and it would seem that the GSL bolt/pins aren't made anymore just the -se pins which seem to be different. What I need is a picture of a GSL rear bolt/pin so that I can have some made. It would be even more awesome if I could get the dimensions off the bolts as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance since this is all that is left to get her on the road.

PS: I did put a post in the FS section and didn't get anything useful.

Are you talking about the slider bolt that the caliper actually slides on?

yea, the rear callipers I got are themselves threaded and there is no threading in the bracket like in the -se. This has left me high and dry since I can't find any information on that bolt/pin part. I'm trying to put the dimensions together from measurements taken but would be easier if I could see a pic or something of one.
