Default XC40 'Protective Steel Grill'

Hello,

Ive recently changed from an earth destroying AWD XC40 T4 to a Gretta approving XC40 Recharge.
Our old XC40 had the rear grill fitted (Part. No. 32261313) as an optional extra, which I removed, along with what I thought were mounting fixings.

However, my attempts to fit this to the Recharge have forced me to turn to the internet for assistance as I have a few questions:

1) What parts should come with the Protective steel grill to allow for fitment?
Im suspecting I may not have removed all the parts needed to refit this.

2) Do the plastic mounts in the headlining need to be removed? If so, how much force is needed to get them out (I dont want to break them)

Thanks in advance,

Plastic caps are removed and you need to insert the two nuts (using a plastic tube provided..) which are used to tighten the metal plate (which is to replace the plastic caps you removed..). The grille is then slotted into the metal plates on two ends. Hope it makes sense and hope you removed all of the mounting hardware from your old car.
