Default Carden 35% Extra Wing Retaining Pins?????

I recently purchased a used 35% Carden Extra and was told by the seller that the wing was held in place by a pin put through the front locating dowel, inside the fuse and a screw in the underside of the wing into the wing tube. I see the dowels have a hole in them. This is my first Carden and I'm not sure what type of pins they are suppose to be.

Could someone explain or better yet show me a photo of the retaining pins in a Carden Extra?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Marty

I'm not sure on the wing retaining system for Carden but pins thru the anti-rotation dowels are usually just for added safety in case the retaining bolts fail. Small hair pin clips like those used to hold lexan bodies on R/C cars work fine.
