Default Front and Rear Caliper Bolt Torque Specs

I am replacing front and rear brake pads and rotors for my 2008 RX 350, and I am looking for the torque specs for caliper and caliper bracket (torque plate) bolts. I think the front brake has 14mm and 17mm bolts and are the rears 12mm and 14mm bolts? Thanks

It is very important to use a torque wrench on the caliper bolts. Ask me why I know.
