Brake Caliper Mounting Bracket Bolt Torque Spec?

I'm looking for the brake caliper mounting bracket bolt's torque spec? I've seen it range from 80-60-41 lbs online from posts to images I'm not sure relate to the Fit's brake system. I know when I took it off it was way easier than the 80ft lb lug nuts, I tightened it to 50lbs, which was tight enough I couldn't back it off with a socket wrench without a lot of force. Any help is appreciated. This is for the 2015 Fit, though I've heard at least the 2nd gen's brake specs are similar.

The front brake caliper bracket's mounting bolts need to be torqued to 80 lb ft.

The flange bolts that secure the caliper to its slide pins are 17 lb ft.

Thanks Hootie. I also came across this for those interested, it's for an earlier gen. but should be similar.
