Default Bridge Question

I am interested in a Takamine guitar that is on Facebook Marketplace. It's about 25 years old as the seller states the 90's. The condition is listed as good so I know it has some wear and that is an issue. I think I am getting it for a decent price but now when I look closer I see these two black spots on the bridge. Can someone give me an opinion on what those are? Thank You.

The bridge is bolted on. The bolt heads are concealed beneath two black plastic dots, which is what you are referring to.

If you use a mirror to view the inside of the guitar you'll see the ends of the two bolts and their nuts.
