Aux Light Switch Screws

Hey everyone, made it back from Iraq safely, now to start back with the bike. my first question is I had took my aux switch off a year or so ago, and of course lost the screws, I was wondering if anyone could measure the width, length and tread count for me, I want to add a aux light back on my fairing, just don't want to try 4 billion screws to get it done.

Thanks
Andrew

 

Welcome back!

And thank you for serving!

 

I'm not quite sure what switch you are referring to, but the only screws I've ever found ( or needed to replace ) on my XJ were metric. If I were you, I would pull a few other screws off from other places and see if the thread and diameter match your switch, then take one to the hardware / automotive store and find a match.

 

Welcome home and post a pic of this switch, I'm not sure what it looks like.

 

if you can do Iraq, i'll walk out to the garage
3mm X 15mm X .5
good thing i looked mine were loose

thanks for your service

 

Thanks guys, I'll be off to Lowes to find the screws after work tomarrow

 

Glad to have you back in the world, Schmidt. I hope working on the bike is a pleasant diversion from all the time you put-in over in the Middle-East.

Take it slow and easy for a little-bit.
You deserve a break.

If I was you ... I wouldn't be working on no bike until I got back from City Hall with my name legally changed and a new Social Security Number and the inside of my Footlocker waterproofed and filled with beer!

 

Footlocker filled with beer......... will have to remember that for the next deployment :twisted:

 

Welcome home, and thanks for fighting for us.
