Pardon my horrible google work, I'm normally pretty good at it.

Last night I was reinstalling my Grill with the wife when she decided to tighten the Drivers side screw down so hard she snapped the 10mm bolt that goes into the plastic mount. The bolt is still in the plastic mount, but the head is sheared off and its now not doing anything.

Can we order these mounts and Bolts? I tried google, tried Rock Auto, not sure what to do now.

Good question, Call your local dealer and ask them. I find when I go to just get bolts, they just give me a handful, I always ask them to write it up so I can leave them a survey, they live by those things :)

Good deal man. I'll give them a call. Hopefully this doesn't end up being a 100$ mount lol

Yup. The Inside two are metal, and they screw into metal brackets. The outside two are plastic, and they screw into plastic mounts. I don't have a picture of them right now, and am about to go to work, But your sure yours are metal? They have a real big thread pattern for the plastic they screw into compared to the inside metal ones.

I suppose that even with one missing it isn't the end of the world, I guess I'd just much rather have all four holding it in lol. There's only a little bit of play in it, but more then I'd like it to have.

I just wen't out to check mine too, they are indeed plastic, I had no idea, it's only two of the four bolts though, but it's like , they are almost like fasteners, not bolts even. It's quite weird.

They are a weird item indeed.
