Center piece!

The center piece below the dash(houses the trunk release, fog lights, and defrost) is hanging down on the right side in my 92 bird. I recently took it off so I could replace the plastic that goes over the speedo. Anyways, could someone tell me if there are 2 or 3 screws holding the center piece up. I have 2 screws for it, and there is a 3rd hole, that is more towards the right side. As far as I can tell that hole is not meant for a screw.

On the T/A's and stuff the other piece has the performance suspension emblem

The accessory switch panel on the 91-92 birds almost never sits right. It should have two 7mm screws and two clips that snap into the guage bezel. If the holes for the clips are broken it won't fit right. Try loosening the screws and tightening them while holding the panel in place... if you overtighten them it won't sit level... loosen the screws till you're happy with it. Also keep in mind that these panels really have a tendancy to warp.
