Which bolts are the caliper bolts?

The caliper bolts are the long bolts that go horizontally from one side of the mounting bracket, through the top and bottom of the caliper, to the other side of the mounting bracket(if the caliper is supported inside and outside of the rotor, which all the ones I've seen are). The caliper slides on the caliper bolts to adjust to the rotorand usually has expanding dust boots around the boltson both sides of the caliper tokeep the sliding area clean.
