Strut Tower Bolt Torque?

Getting ready to put my new front strut tower brace on, but I'm not sure what to torque the bolts back down to.

Anybody know?

I do not remember what they were set at. What I did was to remove them using a scale type torque wrench. Then tightened them to what it took to loosen them. Have on for over a year, no problems.

I am getting a brace (Strange Delelopment) for my birthday in a few weeks. Let us know how you like the brace.
