Im guessing you can use the sizing in the description to match up the bolt but Ill leave that to the physics pro's on the site if it will work.

Ill also pull my records to see if I can find the prices I paid but think I was close to the $60-70 range IIRC.

04Hex bolt with washerM10X55631101096987$3.53
05Hex nut wiht flangeM10-10 ZNS3633306760587$0.78
There is no question they went up because I found your old prices when goggled the part# but when open any link it seems that everybody updated the prices to $11+ per each bolt.
I use this dealer and nobody touches their prices but even they come at $75 before shipping:
BMW Parts and Accessories

I'm not a cheapskate but I'm convinced I can find higher grade bolts and nuts than OEM for probably under $30 when bought form reputable online metric bolts store.

I suspect that astronomical price has something to do with limited stock quantities.

Thanks.
