Throw over left shoulder. Put bolts in holes with silicone. Fit decent tubeless tyres. Have done this on two 81 RH's, no problems,

Not really needed and makes the wheel harder to balance AND can pinch the tube.

Leave them off and plug the holes with silicon.

Hello all, would anyone happen to have 2 rim locks with nuts to fit a standard 79 mod? and if so how much are you asking for them?
