I have a Citrus '12 SESG & I've spent a lot of time & $ changing out the less than desirable bolts that were used to assemble it & I'd like to change the rocker cover bolts but my dealer says they're "special". Has anyone here ever changed theirs to a more eye appealing type & if so what & where did you get them? Thanks a lot guys.

How about the chrome rocker cover fasteners the MOCO sells?

(Your dealer's employee who said the fasteners are special is "uninformed" at best...)

I bought the Harley chrome bolt kit.
It's nothing more than an industrial flash chrome.
Don't bother wasting your money like I did.

I totally agree on the polished SS fasteners, Mike Jesse.  They'll look new for a long, long time.  spyder

Everything Harley sells is "Special".  Don't forget that.

You will need (6) 5/16-18x1 and (6) 5/16-18x1.75.  I used these:

They look great.  Don't forget washers.
