Default Random bolts came off from the soft top..

I was driving with top up, and i heard a rattling inside the soft top. every time i turned, i heard something sliding around inside. so i made a sharp turn, which caused some bolts to randomly come out of the top. i have no idea what they go, and when i took it to dealership, they threw the bolts out, and told me that "Have no idea where they go, but top still works fine"... because they threw it away, i don't have any pics of it. but it looks like pawn chess piece... anyone have any idea where it belongs?

Last time my top was lubed, I saw 2 nuts just fall off. Put them back and all was well.

Guess it's a good idea to check them once in a while!
