I found sourcing these (other than paying the OPC a fiver a pop) quite difficult so if you are looking for caliper bleed screws for a ATE caliper (mine were off a 1984 944 but I think Porsche used these calipers until the end of the 1986 model year before they introduced ABS) then try this lot:

Quick delivery, cheap, and they also have the M10x1.0 that the Boxster/996 use. There were a few suppliers on Ebay but I fancied the stainless steel ones to minimize any future corrosion problems (the old ones had rounded off and needed heat and a mole grip to release as the spanner just spun).
I've just read the above and made myself laugh. I can't see anyone else refurbing these calipers in another 21 years!!
