Rear light lens screw size?

Post by jollyroger »

Hi,
Does anyone know the size/thread type of the screw that holds the rear lens on? It is on 1969 saloon.
:D

Offhand, I think its 2BA. Most Lucas electrical bits use BA fastners.

The stud on the base is 2BA. The lens screws seems smaller - I think maybe 4BA - I'll try and get some that size and try them.

If anyone else knows the exact size please let me know.
