As a general rule the thicker the diameter, the higher the torque. I normally go about 30nm for the guide pins and up to 90nm for the anchor plate bolts.
Never had a problem. |

The 13mm ones? has the slide pins in them with rubber boot?
Not overly tight, never really torque them, just by feel. Probably somewhere around the 30-40nm i guess.
