Jay- My question also. Here's my take on the caps. Cut a "V" into the top end of the SS running crosswise. Now you have two points diametrically opposite each other. File one a little bit shorter then the other. Bend the longer one to fit the shape of the seat lug then bend in the short outer point with a distinctive flattened shape. This give you a stepped pair of points, one on top of the other. Braze it up and file to clean up the dual shore lines.
