Bolt size holding rear E-brake bracket? Please!

Hey Everyone!

I heard some metal on metal noise in the right rear of my 2018 Tesla M3 LR RWD when I would go over bumps. It would clank and then go away. After inspection, it appears that the bracket holding the electronic brake wiring had the bolt holding it in place come off.

I have looked through the service manuals and tried to find anyone else that has had the issue, but to no avail. If someone could please tell me the bolt size, it would be very much appreciated! Below is a picture of the bolt location, and the following picture is of the part itself.

The bracket screws in right next to the back of the brake housing.

Thank you for help!

There is an assortment pack of flanged metric bolts on Amazon for like 10 bucks. Most hardware stores won’t have the flanged version if you want to keep it OEM. M6x12 is what you want stainless steel. I’ve used the other bolts on other projects on the car so they are not wasted.
