They will work for the hood emblem but the other trim attaches with screws

What type of screws? I've seen several ads on Ebay for an assortment of trim screws but they never say exactly what those screws are for.

Kory, you can pick up these type and other type push clips (like rectangular ones) at places like Ace Hardware, Lowe's Hardware, etc.  Take your emblem along to be sure you get the right size.  It will be a lot cheaper (less than $1).   ;)

Did Larry Barket get you that vent and other parts you were needing from him??

Kory, look on the backside of the grill trim.  Sometimes the thread size will be part of the mould markings (like 10/24).  It won't give you the length.  All of the related hardware though should be in the parts list book.   ;)

I still haven't gotten the part from Larry. He said by text he was sending it on Monday the 13th. I still haven't seen it. I texted him yesterday to see if he'd sent it. No reply.
