Question about front brake caliper guiding bolts
I have a 2008 BMW E60 528XI. I took my front brake calipers off today without noticing that the two guiding bolts have different lengths (short and long). So I don't know which one should go on top and which one should go on bottom.
I put them on without any problem and tight them up. If I remember correctly, on the left caliper, I put the short bolt on top and the long bolt on bottom and on the right caliper, I put the short bolt on bottom and the long bolt on top. I think I did one side wrong. but why all of them can fit tight in there?

Thank you for your reply. None of my bolts sticks out so I probably did it right. I will drive my car for a bit and see if everything is okay.
