If it was glassed in right you don't need anything, basically what was done is it was made all into one piece. Post some pics, we will see what you need.

I suspect you will need the assembly instruction manual (AIM). Order one for your model year. The AIM shows the factory assembly of the entire front clip and the various parts you will need.
