On my ’29, they attach to a plate behind each door piilar and go diagonally down to just in front ot the rear wheel well. They are coverd by the side panels in the rumble seat and allow you to adjust the gap between the doors and where the latches are on the pillar posts.

If you try to remove the side panels to see the turnbuckes beware of the sharp corners on each side of the back of the fixed seat support. Those edges can scrap against the panels. I used duct tape covered by black Gorilla tape to cover those sharp corners.
