Question OEM Transmission Mount Torque Specs

Hey everyone, I'm about to replace my transmission mount with brand-new OEM ones, but I couldn't find the correct torque spec in the service manual.
  • Part Number: 50806-S2A-000
The three 14mm bolts securing the transmission mount to the frame should be torqued to 28 ft/lb. However, I couldn't find any torque specifications for the single 12mm bolts at the top and bottom (indicated by the red arrows in the diagram) anywhere in the manual.

Does anyone have any insight on this torque spec? I'm considering tightening them to 28 ft/lb, the same as the transmission mount to frame specification.

For those, I usually go with around 1/8 on the bicep setting and then turn until I say "click!"

A mechanic friend used to say, "tightened it until the bolt snaps, then back it off a 1/4 turn."

Im pretty sure if you do not say click out loud, stuff will break ...

I knew a guy once that for very large fasteners said to tighten "just short of crapping your pants"
