I suppose I could attach all but the cowl leading edges and maybe the first 2 forward ones top and bottom but i just chose not to. They have a nice spring-loaded engagement and once locked only a post pin failure could cause one to come out. It wouldn't matter if your post housing was attached to the cowling or not.
