they did not - it takes a fair amount of force to break them loose, but it seemed to me that 4 of the new bolts over in the area of leakage were able to be cranked down more to get to 90 ft lbs, meaning I did the tightening in increments and those over on the passenger side needed a few more rotations to get them to a full 90 lbs.
I was extremely pleased with the outcome - this far no sign of oil seepage, it was the same result when I did it on my 1999.
Don't know if the 2004 needed new bolts but they cost $24 so went ahead and used new ones.
