Default Fork Slider Cover Torque

I am replacing my upper fork sliders on my 2011 FLSTC (Heritage Softail Classic) and can't seem to find the Torque for the Slider bolts in the maintenance manual. Does anyone have the torque value??

Thanks

If you're referencing the 'cowbells', it's not important to get an exact torque...just 'snug enuf'...If exact torque on every part IS important, get you a factory service manual. Use Loctite 242 blue or shellac on the threads. They ain't goin' nowhere!
