Really hard to tell in this picture....

Not sure how to connect my corral to this part... (screw, nut/bolt?)



Thank you!

The 'lower'(front) 2 holes are where the corral attaches with chrome sheet metal screws.

The 2 small holes on 'top' are small sheet metal screws with a slotted, 6 sided head. These screws actually go through to the honeycomb grille.

The 2 big holes are bolts with outside star washers underneath. These go through and attach to the hood latch assembly.

Cool, thanks. I just found out I will be heading to a field of parts cars tomorrow, so I will keep an eye out for some screws if the guy will let me grab them.

I lucked out and got a NOS bracket on ebay for $4.99. Near mint with the sticker still on it.

Thanks again.
