You do have a point, worrying just gives you stress. Here's a product that is on E-bay, bids start at $9.99. With 2 days left on bid. Prob go for $ 20? Let you all know. Think ill head out and get some parts this weekend just for something to do. ImageUploadedByMO Free1353540326.175371.jpg
Got the parts today, Friday, thanks for the post, I couldn't find the wheel screw. A little deterrence and maybe the murther will move on to another bike, I feel a little better now that the springs are off.

I went to ACE Hardware a few days ago and bought 4 5/16 -18 u-shaped clip nuts, 4 5/16-18x1.25 SS hex button head bolts. I reused the flat washers from the OEM dsuz fasteners. Total cost was ~$6. Took 15 minutes of time to remove the bags, remove the dsuz fasteners, install the clip nuts and the saddlebags. put a dab of blue Loctite on the SS bolts before inserting them. It may not be theft PROOF (few things are), but I feel it's theft RESISTANT.
