Flat turn signal screw size
Once again, I've searched high and low to (almost) no avail:
I'm looking for the size of the screw used on the Road King turn signals ('flat' variety). I think I saw a reference to 6-32, 5/8 (or was it 7/8), but I wanted to confirm that. The HD site just has a part no., the manual that I've got doesn't list a size...
I don't want to put $90 LED turn signals on my rear with the standard screws, just to have them walk off one day. Sure, that might be an unlikely occurrence, but if I can spend a couple of bucks now on a few security screws...

Others can chime in, I'm sure. Not sure the model year of your bike, but this is the part you want. Might ask you HD dealer if they have them in stock

A buddy bought one a couple weeks ago for his '12 King.

Thanks! Sorry, I forgot to post mine; I've got an 08 RKC. I saw some screws like that, and I love how the bag doesn't indicate any of the important info! I may end up busting out the calipers and/or heading to Home Depot to get a size/thread count!

Ok, I ended up getting some security torx screws; 6-32 3/8" for the flat signals, and 8-32 1" for the taillight. I've got them on now and they're working great. Makes me feel a bit better with the LED upgrade I put in (Custom Dynamics LED's all around and the 'triple play' and load equalizer. I like having the rear running lights and the strobe-brake effect.)

Perfect find while standing in home Depot
99 road king. Your 6-32 3/8 was perfect for me.
