Default Le Pera bare bones question

I was just wondering on the 00-05 bare bones seats,do they extend far enough back to cover the seat strap hole in the fender?I was also wondering with all the people who run solo seats,what are you guys running in the seat screw hole on the exposed fender?

I bought instead the Santee phoenix seat and they do cover the holes.

Sorry about that I thought you mentioned the two holes behind the seat. In the fender I have a detachable hardware kit.

Harley Davdison has a little bar&shield plastic insert that goes into those holes, I have my nut/bolt assy and keep it with my 2up seat, and the insert in the hole while I'm running the solo.
