97 Firebird radiator baffle placement

Hello all, I recently purchased a 97 Firebird that had front end damage due to a deer being hit. I am trying to figure out how and where both the upper and lower baffles are to be installed. I have searched google and all i can find are the actual pieces [which I already have] but no luck on how or where they are to be placed.

Any and all help appreciated. Photos or a video would be welcome.

Thanks gang!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you need help installing it or finding the parts?

You can get a HELM manual for it on Ebay, that should set you up for how to install it.

If you need the part, check Hawks 3rd gen (they sell 4th gen stuff). Not sure about other 4th gen stuff.

no i have the parts, i just am trying to figure out how it hooks onto the underbody plastic. I do have the HELM book but their diagram only shows the parts apart, not showing how they piece together on the underside.

You might want to join a 4th Gen F-Body forum. You might get more specific answers to your questions.
