They are in no means structural since the tank actually holds the wings in place.
Never the less, I quickly regulated these plastic things to my "junk drawer" in place of some SS bolts and well nuts just for my own security. (without a tank on the TPII, the wings are only being held on by the tank band straps if these are not in place)
That is really the only thing "cheesy" about the TPII. Dove it several times and haven't had any problems etc. Very comfortable, adjustable, etc.
Mine came with both the nylon screws as well as a pair of of SS bolts and well nuts. Both of them went in my junk drawer too I used a couple of wire ties to hold the wing on between dives when the tank is not attached. I've got about 25 dives on it since the Spring and have had nothing but great dives using it.
