Lots and lots of bolts running from the inside out. Wear safety glasses and pre-soak all of the bolts you will be removing with WD 40. When the bolts bind up in the clips then can pretty much destroy a cherry grille. Just my 2 bits from experience.

1967/69 parklamps are different than 1970/72's.
1967/69's mount into the grille, below the headlamps.
1970/72 parklamps mount between the stone shield (valance) and the grille.
So, if you are using a 1970/72 grille in a 1967/69, you'll also need both parklamps, which are right/left specific.
