You'll fit 5mm ones, and screws, in there. Slightly oversized but nice and tight.

I just happen to have some leftover from when I had a road king. you want them? send me a pm with your address and i'll send them out to you. hd part number is 5210. I only have 3 of them though, but you're welcome to them.

Thumbs up

Wodan, thank you for squaring me away, I wasnt sure what size they were and didnt want to order the wrong size on amazon and deal with returns. I really appreciate it.

Skratch, thank you for the offer. I could certainly use them...I think I only have three on right now. And thanks for the part number too!

great group of folks here!

Order some 5mm allen bolts, flat and spring washer while you are at it. You need 8 of each

Just out of interest, does anyone know what size the Road Glide ones are, pn: 5207?

They look longer and thinner, I think.

actually, they are longer and thicker. I've tried to buy some aftermarket ones for my roadglide, but they never work out as well as the roadglide ones. so i just suck it up and buy them from hd. usually keep 5 extra on hand.

the roadking headlight one is on the left, roadglide on the right....
