Default seat question

hey, guys. i need y'alls help. i just bought a new solo seat and it is mounted to the bolt holes on my '05 night train, just in front of the struts.. does anybody know what size bolt i will need, to mount it?

i went to the local dealer and they looked at me like i was retarded. i had to actually go find an '04 they,on the floor,and show them what i was talking about. apparently, if it's anything earlier than an '07, they don't know what you're talking about.
