Brake job questions

I replaced the brakes on my boxster, 996 turbo and 12 Touareg. Brembo brakes are real easy to work on. If just changing pads it's a piece of cake. I replace all the hardware except the brake sensor, but if you want to go cheap I don't think there is any harm in leaving everything with exception to the pads and discs. Every time I have replaced the caliper bolts they look fine (very little rust on the threads), the pad retaining pin and clamps also usually look fine (just dirty). I would replace all, but if trying to cut corners I don't think there would be any detriment.
