Bolt pattern for rotor removal

Anyone know the bolt pattern for the "assist" holes on the rotors to help pop them off?

I'm doing all four corners this weekend as well as SS brakes and clutch line and want to line up the parts ahead of time.

Thanks.

I believe the radiator bolt is the perfect thread pitch for the hole. If not it's 8x1.25mm i think or 8x1.5

Also a rubber mallet to help persuade if it's a little tight. However, it really should only take the bolt to pop the rotor off.

I did them last night and tonight. Front came off no problem. Rear was a pain and I needed the rubber mallet and assist bolts.
