Is this bracket 'sided'? Its the little black bracket on either side of the radiator that holds the top of red panel in place against the radiator support & inner fender?

Think Tony and I sorted this out on the phone. The real problem was that the holes on the new radiator are 1/8 inch closer together than on the old.
 
Driving me crazy!! All day & I've only gotten the 2 driverside bolts installed...whoever designed this thing should have to install a replacement radiator!
 
So what's the prob since we talked? Or is it in now?
 
Nope, stopped to watch end of AL-LSU ballgame that had been on all afternoon.....I've got the top passenger bolt aligned...will install the lower passenger bolt first though.
 
Outstanding, well done. Should be easy now.
 
HA!! Nothing on this car is easy......
 
It's the learning curve Tony. Bet I would have probs with a B.
 
...can't wait to get back to a B!!
 
So now you have another Midget to do, heh. Well while the mind is fresh.
