Default accessory question

This is probably a stupid question (There seem to be a lot of posts that start out with that line) but i was wondering if anyone knew what those things were called that hold the saddlebags down to the top of the rear fender when you have a solo seat installed. I've seen them before on various bikes around in my area, they seem to be made of leather and have studs on them. They are slightly curved, flat, rigid and span from the back of the solo seat over the junction of the two saddlebags on top of the rear fender to the screw holder on the back of the rear fender.
