Hi everyone,

I've finally put in all the masticated rubber and see that each rubber piece has 2 places that clip on but I also notice the bottom of the masticated rubber has some holes but theres nothing near them to clip onto? I attached a pic with 2 yellow arrows, do I just leave them hanging like that? I used "catalina"s picture from the forum to demonstrate.

The two holes in the bottom fasten to two holes in the lower baffle. You should have two holes in the baffle that do not have screws in them.

Here is a series of photos.

Thanks Harold, I used a fiberglass lower filler panel from ames performance and I believe you were the one who told me that the ears were half an inch short, so I made my own bracket. I guess I will have to drill my own holes for those as well then. Also Harold, what are the 2 holes for in the front valence in your pic here

Yes the fiberglass has no holes so you will need to drill them too.

Those holes were a carry over from the 67 park lights.
