Some speed nuts were present,

Got some speed nuts today to use on my fender skirts. I was surprised to find speed nut backup already present on most of the screws - there was 11 screws per skirt and 8 or 9 screws already had speed nuts on them. The hard to reach screws did not have nuts. I found 3 screws that were loose. I tightened up everything and added nuts to the others, then dabbed some silicone on each. I found one screw head that was twisted off (screw that holds the bottom of the rubber gasket at the rear cap) so I added a new screw there.

I don’t recall reading any previous posts from folks who discovered nuts already installed - I was pleasantly surprised!
