Default Touring rear seat bolt

Not to beat this topic up again - however

On my 2007 Road King, I had a rear seat thumbscrew kit for ease of pillion removal.

The difference is, the kit had a double ended bolt that got screwed into the fender. This left a 1/4 20 stud sticking up out of the fender. You were also provided with a female knurled thumbscrew.

This is kind of what the bolt looked like



Well, now I've got a 2013 Road Glide Ultra, and I'd like to get another one - but I cannot find them anywhere. I can't remember where the heck I got it for my 2007 Road King.

I've tried searching everywhere but can't find them. Am I crazy?

You're in Garland. Try Elliot's Hardware on Coit Road in Plano. Best damn hardware store in Dallas.
