Fuel crossover size

I'm about to order a quick disconnect for the crossover, and was wondering if anyone knows what size I will need? I'm guessing 1/4" but I want to make sure before I place the order. My bike is a 2015 wide glide. Thanks!

1/4" is the ticket, I got mine from MotionPro - it is plastic, stainless steel might look a bit better.

I bought one last year but have never installed it, got worried about it leaking.
Do these have any bad record of leaks?

mattVA sent me some info on this: the o-rings can tear if you utilize the disconnect multiple times, but if you use some lube on the o-rings, the disconnects can work for a long time without leaks.

What kind of lube should be used?
