I think 10NM is a safe tq
It should be OK with 10Nm. However, I believe the screws touch the bottom. And they are aluminum. Just saying that maybe, just maybe, 10Nm might be a bit excessive. The torque I posted came from BMW AIR (former TIS) for my VIN (2012 car). I can post the document tomorrow when I get to the office if you'd like, just to make sure.
