Uh ..............I found the screw right after I wrote the post , what a dumbass.
Mine was a allen head , its smaller than a 3mm , I had to use a 8 point , star wrench usually used on a GM vehicle, whew , glad it worked.

The old ones had screws so if you havent replaced yours in a while the new one will have the allen deals. Just buy your basic metric allen key kit and it'll have the right one. Good deal.
