Help an idiot, win a prize
On my quest to prove to all CF members that I am an idiot, I have another question that I shouldn't have to ask. Since Big Yella is put away for the salt season, I decided to do some dressing up of the engine compartment. I've painted the FRCs (not done yet),airbridge emblem and radiator cover. While I was putting the rad cover back on I found a 1" square rubber bumper that I took off it 2 weeks ago. Where the hell does it go? The prize is my undying attitude.

I believe that piece clips on the lip of the right side of the radiator top shroud and cushions the a/c line that runs under it.
I know someone here has a pic of of it...but this may be enough info for you to figure it out.

There are actually two of them. They go over the rad and under the cover acts as a sapcer. Should also have a small niple on it where it pushes up through a hole in the rad cover.

My radiator shroud has a rubber piece that is on the right side that seem to protect the lines running under it.

Thanks guys. You all get my undyng gratitude for 2005. Could anyone tell me about how far over from the right edge it should sit? On a related note, the MAF wiring has a clip on it that seems to go UNDER the airbridge on the left side. It will not allow the airbridge to sit flat when I put the airbridge over it. 
(Am I proving to be the anti-Patches? 
)Next time I promise that I'll take pics before I take anything apart.

Thank you! That was the picture I needed. BTW-Your custom paint work looks great. May I be balsy enough to ask anyone for a pic of how the MAF wires are supposed to go by the airbridge. The way I routed the bundle snap under the left side of the airbridge just doesn't look right to me.
