Both of the screws holding my right rear turn signal cover worked themselves out Roll Eyes

. Somehow the actual cover only fell off as I was getting on the bike and noticed it drop.
I went to a hardware store and couldn't find similar screws anywhere. Does anyone have two extra screws that fit the stock turn signal covers?

I have a bunch of signals in the box 'o schtuff. I'm sure a few of them would fit just fine.

On the older model monsters, the screw actually threaded the plastic lens cover as you tightened it. Tightening it too much results in...you guessed it...a broken lens cover. It's one of the most retarded designs I've ever seen. Over time, they are bound to crack and fall off in two little neat pieces somewhere on the freeway. You're almost better off just replacing the entire signal if this is your issue. I generally tighten mine just to the point of being "snug" and then electrical tape that sucker on there. Good luck!

I can prolly dig up two spare signals if you need 'em.
