Sources for new/spare brake caliper bolts

Does anyone have a favourite source for brake caliper bolts? M6x30mm (or longer as required).
One or two of the usual on-line stores don't have them, and Bunnings seems a bit unreliable. Does anyone have another source I haven't thought of which is reliable and cheap (my trusted LBS is not convenient).

Do yourself a favor and stock up on packs of hex bolts in M4 M5 and M6. I have been caught out enough times to learn that these are actually hard to get to warrant having a stash at home.

Not sure where you're located, but there will probably be a specialty fastener shop near to you. They'll generally service the trades and will be in an industrial area, but you should be able to take in examples of what you want and buy them in whatever quantity you need.

Bomond trading in Sydney. Ebay is very handy too if you can wait.

I use Tower Fasteners in Marrickville, Sydney. They have pretty much anything sitting on the shelf.

Ti off eBay - but you will be waiting a few weeks.

As stated earlier, stock up for unforeseen events!

Appreciate the offer but (1) my need is not that immediate, and (2) I'm in Sydney.
A work colleague gave me another bolt specialist down in Taren Point, so the speciality fastener/industrial areas as mentioned above are a good recommendation.
