where do these 4 clips go
So finishing up my radiator and front bumper install and have 4 spring clips that my 53 yr old brain can't remember where they go. If I have to guess I would think in the top radiator plastic air director area but not sure. Can someone help my brain out here with a location for these. They are not a plastic push in wire retainer type, but metal and one side has little barbs to grip thin metal and the other side has a wider gap to hold whatever in place.
Thanks alot
Larry

Is there anything other than the two screws at the bottom of the screen inserts that attachthem to the front bumper cover. I have nothing securing them at the top, just screws at the bottom. And this is an 02Z

I'm guessing here, but GM uses clips to secure screws in many places on the Corvettes. they slip over a hole in a panel and the screw goes through the hole and secures itself into the clips. If you have any screws that do not seem to 'tighten' up, that is likely where there are missing the clips.

So the clamp you are describing is to be used with a screw? Because there is no way to use a screw with these clamps, whatever these hold just slides into the wider slot. Sorry I'm not getting it bear with me please.
