Lost the screw that attaches the Garmin mount to the headlight. Can I get something similar at hardware store or should I order a new mount? The screw came w the mount. Thanks!

    1. You can use any machine screw that fits. I would opt for a crown style machine screw and associated washer. Does this have the female end attached? If not, then I would get a locking nut (the kind with the nylon insert) to put on the other end.

      Seems to be an m5 bolt. If you want to save some money, don’t get anything labeled Gopro, but just get one (or more) from the hardware store. They’re sold by weight, I’ve bought a lot of screws for single digit cents instead of the 100+ -fold you’d pay for the same thing with a different name.

      already got similar comments but i would just take both parts to your local hardware store & test bolts to see what fits best. will only cost you a couple dollars. you could try to track down an oem replacement but youll pay way more than you need to. i’d put a small knurled nut with an o-ring or split washer on it so you can adjust it by hand. good luck!
