Default Side Screens Help

OK, I'm not a nit whit but WTF. I can't figure out how they get attached.I bought the RPI design side screens. The distructions say he added 2 extra mounting blocks, I don't see any, there is just 3 black tabs on one side. Do these things get attached to the fender or the cowl deflector? I have the car apart now so any help would be great.
Dam things... Thanks, Jim

I got the same set from them, and no, they are included and it will take some work to make them fit. I gave up on mine. I may try again in the future but for now, I just stuck them back in the box. Good luck with yours.

well I figured out a different way to do it. I removed the 3 black tabs and put them back on so the tape faces outwards then I was able to stick them to the inside of the fender. When you bolt the cowl part back on ot holds them in place.
