anybody know the thread pitch of lightforce mounting bolt?

i know it's a 10mm bolt, but what is the pitch? 1.25, 1.5?

i called Lightforce USA but the guy answered my phone call didn't know it either.

thanks.

Toyota typically uses 1.25mm pitch on a 10mm bolt (and on 8 and 12mm bolts as well).

But if the bolt is part of the light, M10x1.5mm is the most common metric thread pitch used here in the US.

I see 2 options

option 1. take the light to the hardware store and see what fits.

option 2. If the light is wired, buy 2 nuts from the hardware store and bring them home.

how hard is that?

well, if i could, i wouldn't ask here. i don't have the lights, yet. so no way i can bring them to a store to try it out. the reason i'm asking is that i and my buddy probably will need totally of 4 anti-theft lock nuts for our lights, it's gonna cost $60+ if we buy the Lightforce ones. i can buy Gorilla Automotive 71611N 10mm x 1.25 wheellocks $17 shipped for a set of 4 but i don't know if it's gonna fit. none of my local autoparts stores carry 10mm wheellocks, minimum 12mm.
