OEM's were metric socket head type, which need a (metric) allen wrench to remove. They CAN be replaced by conventional hex heads with no problem. Just be sure to use metric grade 10.8 or better.

Sorry I can't tell you the thread size offhand.

Just did the brakes on my 96, and they are a 13 mm socket to remove the bolts, fairly positive the 97 is the same.

Just be careful not to over tighten them cause they tend to break eisely.
