The dealer does not have these in stock, takes them a week to get. Not sure if I want to put this all back together and have them leak. I don't have a week to wait for them though!

I reused the ones on mine. i also threw those stupid phillip head screws in the trash. i used two regular hex head bolts in place. surprisingly they are metric thread (8x1.25)and i just happen to have a few laying around that are goldish in color that worked and look fine. I also used a little bit of teflon tape as i do with all drain bolts on the bike.

PS, if a dealer doesn't stock them, whats that tell ya..
