3 small bolts......

.....under the front grille; 10mm heads and about an inch long spread out evenly along the underside of the car. I removed one in error trying to get the inner fender off and put it back about as tight as the others. Anyone know what they are for? They are right near the bottom of the radiator. Torque setting?

Also, can anyone say if the Bentley manual is good for the 05s (so I don't have to ask questions like this :smile: )?

Thanks in advance.

Those bolts hold the bumper facia to the car along with 4 others. Not sure of the torque setting, you can tighten them up pretty good though. Hope that helps.
