Be a little more specific. Did just the plastic come off? Is the metal bracket off? Give a pict if you have one.

You have to unbolt them from inside the fender well. This is really hard to do as the studs on the retainers are usually bent or rusty. New ones for the rear are $63, the 1999 has a two piece retainer. my dealer also didn't have the nuts.

If you need new bolt just go to the hardware store and get some nuts bolts and washers
