Keep in mind also that Toyota dealers (if they are closer) can order the part for you and may well be cheaper. They can cross reference the P/N for you.
As an alternative, check with your local parts places (both domestic and import). Caliper bolts are a common item that gets damaged, and it may not be a unique item that another one won't fit.
I definitely agree with the recommendation not to drive. It's not worth it.

Yep, I'm new at this if you've seen me on the other threads but I didn't drive it anywhere. Didn't even think about driving it with a wire. And the dealership was closed and I'm heading back tomorrow to school which is a couple hours away.
Thankfully, my local parts store had the bolt. Little different looking but it fit and I torqued it to the right specs. Thanks a lot to all of you and I'm going to finish up tomorrow when it's light.
