Wow, this one was solved fast. Stacy is the winner!

Whenever one services/replaces the points, the fuzzy wad should be re-oiled. It provides a lubrication for the points to ride on the cam. When I first pulled these out, they were dry as a bone...

If you install Crane (or other types of electronic ignition), you do not need these and in fact, are in the way of the new parts.

The "thingy" you refer to clips the window glass to the regulator, I believe.
