willis Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 Hi folks, can anyone tell me which fixings are used to fasten the front grille to the headlamp panel on a mk2 Vitesse? My panel has what look like 3 captive nuts along the bottom which I assume are for small bolts, but the top has 3 slotted brackets with no nuts. Do I have to use spires and self tapping screws to secure the top of the grille to the panel or is there some other form of fixing? Any help in solving this problem will be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 yes short bolts in bottom and spire nuts and tappers or threaded ones in the top 3 slots Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFL Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 I thought the original Grille fixings for the Mk2 Vitesse are Square type push in plastic fittings to the 3 Vertical support bars, 2 per bar I think? Self tapping screws then hold the grille on 2 per bar 6 in total. Gary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave.vitesse Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 I have had a dig around and came up with a couple of pictures that show the plastic fitting on the MK2. Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
