2L a/c head "nipples"
I have a '76 spider that had a/c at one time and the 2 "nipples" on the front of the head still are there. It just seems "right" to remove them but are the screw-in plugs still available when I remove the present ones? Help me do the "right" thing!

They can be removed - try Larry at APE for replacement plugs. Or just saw them off...

Dan,
I'll swap them with you for regular plugs.
