Socket size to remove front brake pad bolt?
I'm trying to change out my front brake pads on my 2012 F12, but can't figure for the life of me what size allen socket to use to remove the caliper guiding bolts? Anyone know?

I tried 6, 7, 8, and 10mm. 10mm was too big, all others too small. I don't get it!

It’s 9mm as I found out today. What kind of German engineer specs 9mm when 8 & 10 are right there? Arrrrgh. Excuse to upgrade my Allen wrench game is the silver lining I suppose.
