A little squirt of Insulation Foam in the ends will stop the wind music and the

  They're mostly to stop the wind from blowing through tubing and making 
whistling sounds.

  At least, they seem to work for that!

  I think tubing caps are unnecessary and they could trap water.  I never use 
  them.

  Mine are all but gone due to age and UV. Where can I get replacements ir
  substitutes?

  Are they necessary?

  How about corks?
