the long skinny bolts go through both of the switch mechanisms and kinda hold the whole thing together.

See the 3 holes that go around the perimiter of the switch assembly here..

The earlier switch assemblies (the ones with the metal arms) have four "long skinny bolts"...

Thanks. I'll go check it out. My alternator went out again last night due to this problem. Now I need another voltage regulator.
