how to get the 97+ grill into the bumper?

there's a clip in the middle of the grill but what goes into the other 3 holes? do i just jam a screw in there and tighten it down?

easy way is to take off the front bumper, and slide the grill onto it. Use screws for the 3 holes on the OEM grill.

buy the screws from the dealer...theyre really cheap, self tapping tho, so its tight to put em on the first time...and you can get the grille on while the bumpers on there, you just need a short screwdriver, or to move the horn.
