Cowl Replacement parts

I got the Cowl Refresh Kit from ECS and I don't know where two of the parts are supposed to go.

On the RealOEM diagram it is number 6. The refresh kit comes with two of these plugs, but looking at the old cowl I don't see where they are supposed to go, and it doesn't look like the tabs on the rings that hold the hoses and attach to the bottom of the cowl come off. I also didn't notice this in any of the videos I watched on the cowl replacements and searching hasn't given me anything.

Also this TIS page doesn't mention the part.

Can anyone help with this?

This is what the plug looks like

I didn't end up using those. I think they might have been intended for the two cable clamps that connect to the cowl, but those have the plugs molded into the clamps. What I would rather have had was two replacement clamps. As far as I know, the part# on those is 61138350836.

There's a YouTube video that someone made showing how he replaced his cowl. He also has one showing how to replace the window molding. I don't remember if he shows installation of that plug specifically. I'm to lazy to look for it right now, but if you search YouTube it's easy to find.

There are two holes on the left side just behind the seal, that look like they are meant for the pins. Possibly they were to hold cable clamps on an earlier model. Mine is a 2006.

Looking for Clip part number

The clip part number given doesn't seem to match the original. Anyone have an update on the wire harness clip and the part number? Seems odd that Realoem.com doesn't show it in an obvious place. Thanks!
