Radiator Support Shim Brackets

There are two small brackets, or filler plates that mount somewhere on the sides of the radiator/radiator support of my 48f1. The body man who is assemblying the front end can't figure out exactly where the go. They are about 4"x6" and one of them has a hole in it that looks like it takes a grommet(for wiring?). Someone on eBay has a set for sale and is calling them "Radiator Support Shim Brackets". I don't know if this is the correct name for the plates.

Does ayone here have a diagram or picture of exactly where these brackets/filler plates go? Any help would be appreciated.

This old thread I made a while back identifying the differences in the parts may be helpful, if this is what you're talking about.
