Strut to knuckle? bolts torque spec

My 2018 ILX has about 1..4 degrees of negative camber on front left wheel (acceptable range is -0.5 to 0.5 degrees). I want to first try to adjust it by loosening the two strut to knuckle (I assume that's what they are called) bolts, and if not then buy camber bolts (probably the 14mm Moogs which according to Amazon are also good for the Toyota RAV4 [[url]https://www.amazon.com/Moog-K90476-Cam-Bolt-Kit/dp/B000HPLUDO/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=MOOG+K90476+Alignment+Camber+K it+for+Toyota+RAV4&qid=1708281630&s=automotive&sr= 1-1]) to make it happen.

Does anyone know what the torque is for these bolts? I don't want to eyeball it for obvious consequences if I happen to be wrong...

Please see this pic that I snapped from the alignment shop display for reference, if need be, Thank You!

just wanted to give an update. i was able to reduce my negative camber by about 1 degree just by adjusting the original bolts. i will have the shop check the alignment again to be sure it's in spec, of course. thank you once again for your help VISI_D !
