Yep BMW use this system ,all my old 5 series had then in various locations mainly in parts off the running gear.
These aren't Porsche standard fastenings,the correct ones are a barrel nut with a 8mm thread then broached half way to the other end for a hex key,no room for a conventional nut in there.
Darn... probably cost more to send them back.
