#1 I need a pic of how the front license plate attaches to the valence. I don't have the bracket yet but I would like to see what it looks like.
#2 What is the proper routing of the washer hoses? I think the feed comes into the bottom or far left and the other 2 go to the nozzles. I can hear the pump working but I'm not getting any fluid out of the nozzles so maybe I am wrong

What fits in the top hole of the valance behind the tag? Some kind of bumper?

The front license plate bracket attaches to the valence, which then attaches to the vertical brace where the horn and hood latch mechanism is... The top bracket hole should match up to the valence hole, and the vertical brace. The bottom of the valence has holes for a baffle that covers the entire area underneath...

Aaron, That top hole for the '68s is a mystery since the '68 bracket only uses the bottom two holes in the valance. In '69 there was a different bracket used.. Here's a previous discussion on that issue: /forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=29061&fpart=2
