Radiator bracket attach problem.

[rod25]

14' C650GT I don't know how to fixed the radiator holder or support under. Does this has a screw that I misplace or a special screw that need to replace so that i can attach this bracket? Can any anyone here could help me. Thanks...

Picture shows the bracket.

... it doesn't appear to me to show that bracket and its screws:



My guess is:

1) That bracket is considered part of the radiator, i.e., it would come already attached, if someone were to buy a new radiator.

2) That there's nothing particularly special about those two screws, except that they are short. My guess is that they're a standard thread pitch, perhaps M4 or maybe smaller, self-tapping metal screws.

That's my guess, anyway.

Did you personally separate that bracket from being attached underneath the radiator, or did it fall off, or is there some other story behind all of this?

I own a C 400 GT, not your C 650 GT, so I can't just take a look. Hopefully someone who owns a 650 and has the bodywork off can take out one of those screws, measure its length and width, and take a photo for you.
