Default Pics of WS6 Hood Grille Inserts

Does anyone have a STOCK WS6 hood that can take a close up picture of the grilles?

The genuis who owned my T/A before me thought it would give him more HP to take out the grilles, and as I purcahsed OEM ones to put in, GM says "There's no screws for it, we dont show any" as i'm staring at the 4 speedclips on the body and 4 holes in the inserts....

I just want a picture of anyone who has these inserts in thier hood STOCK so I can see how its supposed to be.

Thank you for your help.

Of course it has screws, they have an allen head on them. The left grille if looking from the front has a screw at the top left and bottom right, and the right has a screw at the top right bottom left. I will see if I can get a pic for you later on if nobody else chimes in.

Thanks for all your help. The pic is a little far out to see. but thanks for the effort. I appreciate it.
Allen head SCREWS, not bolts, correct? Interesting. I'd just like to see a close up of the way its supposed to be cuz I wanna see if I need to get a washer or not and how big, etc. If either of you mind could you take the screw out so I can get an idea of length?

This post is a bit burried so I'll PM you.

Actually they are T10 Torx head screws, but you are right - there are (2) per grille and they are black in color...
