You need those little plastic screw tabs. Do you still have the old panel? Take the tabs out.

Does anyone know where to get these plastic screw tab pieces of devil spawn? I'm swapping my header panel right now and the tabs that secure the headlight frames, grill, and turn signals are all pretty well stuck, hard to remove, or breaking when I try to pull them out.

Or maybe some suggestions on what to use instead? I was thinking about just going out and grabbing a handful of nuts, bolts, and washers that are about the same size. And I think I'm just going to do that, but some of the spots look pretty tight, like the washers and nuts wouldn't fit, being wider than the plastic mushroom turds.

Thanks!

Napa has a big fat book with actual samples of the clips they carry.
