Question GT/CS Front Bumper Cover with Chin Spoiler Insert

look @ the picture:



i bought a new gt/cs front bumper cover and there is this chin spoiler insert wich must be fixed at the bumper cover.

here's the link to the online shop: http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...ges/LRS-20049A

my problem is that i don't have an retainer to fix the chin spoiler insert at the bumper cover

(you can see 8 holes at the picture)

Does anyone have an idea where i can get these clips, retainers....?

thx
Stephan

Edit: i've found the PDF where you can see these retainers:

I got them (the originals fell out) at the dealership for $8 for a 4-pack I think. You're actually only using the outter 4 of those holes I think, I'll have to go out and double check later. They're a push-pin style plastic connector that the center screws in and causes the back side to expand enough to hold it in.

Had to replace mine last year, apparently in ltae '06 when I first put it on, I didnt get them all in all the way, and last year while on a long drive, the whole thing fell out and started dragging on the street. At night, along the freeway, I had to remove the bolts that hold the back side in and throw the whole thing in the trunk until I could get home and get the replacement pins.

There should be instructions on here somewhere for the install, I don't know where though.

Also, check with KC (Kevin Casey) on here, he's a parts manager in Cali. He's who I bought my front and rear bumper kits from back then, and knows all the details.

I just bought some small black bolts/nuts at auto zone for a couple bucks, worked fine. Only need 6, don't use the center holes.

tanks a lot for the answers

unfortunately i can't go to the ford-dealer cause i'am from germany. The german ford-dealers doesn't have any parts for the Mustang because the Pony was not officially sold in germany (just self-import).

i'am gonna try to contact KC. Maybe he can ship these retainers to germany

thx @ all
