Started my nose to bum run through of my 1991 sturgis glide. The electrical is the big daunting task so I’d like to get that out of the way first. I also have a buddy (very good with electrical) to help.
One of us dropped the little screw that is grounded the switch (see pictures). We looked EVERYWHERE. I know we’ll find it when I buy a new one but at this point I’d rather pay it twice over than spend another precious moment searching for a tiny screw.
HOWEVER, nothing seems to fit at the hardware store. Does anyone know the pitch and size of this screw???
Hope there’s a hardware wizard out there!
thanks guys

unfortunately two of my local hardware stores didn’t carry it but I’m lucky enough to have a evo and back custom harley shop around which tossed me one. Of course, as I walked out my door the next day the screw was sitting on my doormat! Isn’t that how it goes lol
But thanks for the info guys! I’ll keep chipping away at the electrical on this sturgis glide!
