Finally doing the heater core on my 2000 XJ. As I was disassembling the dash, I found that the two bolts attaching the dash center bracket to the tunnel were missing. There are no bite marks on the bracket from such bolts being tightened, so it seems that the bolts were never installed from the factory. Also, the captive nut on the driver-side hole is not present, and the holes in the tunnel were not plugged.

Has anyone seen this before?
