Ignition Anti-Theft Bolt Size?

I'm going to take my ignition off and clean it out (it's getting sticky). I can't find the bolt size anywhere. Anybody know?

My 04 would get notchy/sticky occasionally. I'd stuff a paper towel directly under switch and give it a good blast of contact cleaner followed with some WD40. The shit that would come out of there would boggle your mind, I think I did it twice in the years I had the bike. Worked great, and a whole lot less fuckupable than taking it apart.
