Subject: End caps

Just recently purchased new end caps, the "Hardware" is nothing more than a
little shim that seemed not necessary and a simple mushroom head black bolt.
The price of the "hardware" is $5 !!!!!

I too bought a new end cap (have an '84), but I'm still just a little
confused.  On the bumper, in the front, are two holes that would appear to
not be used.  On the cap, there is the one center hole for the carriage
bolt, but no matching hole in the bumper.  Is this carriage bolt (black
bolt) just a cosmetic thing?

Is the cap only held on by the two little plastic slide projections on the
top and bottom and the side screw at the rear?  Or is there some other
hardware I need to buy.
