Anyone know what size the headlight adjustment screw is? Found out last night I don't have any.

10-32 X 1". Don Lang is selling them now, but when I did mine I had to drill the cotter pin hole. I used stainless, because it will never get dull. Don's have the cotter pin hole according to his catalog.

I replaced mine from the hardware store , didn't have a good way to drill cotter holes at the time so I picked up four matching nuts and used one as a jam nut. still working.
