74 Dart Sport hood hinges

VDART said
On both a 74 dart sport & 74 valiant, there was a large plastic spacer behind the hood hinge. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=275126&highlight=hood+hinges they are in the picture in the above link, Lawrence

When I look at those large washers or spacers it looks like they are on the rivet that joins the tow pieces together and not on the actual holes where they mount to the body. Am I missing something? Thanks, Keith
