Missing Stelvio fairing fastener?

Hello Stelvio collective. In the process of re installing the fairing on my bike after converting to LED bulbs I realized that both my side farirings are missing some kind of fasterners to attach them to the front frame bracket (or at least I think so). I have contacted my local Guzzi dealer twice but to no avail and scouring the internet parts diagrams has proven unsuccessful. I'm wondering if indeed I am missing a couple of fasteners or not. The image I posted was taken looking up from the front. Stelvio side fairing attachment

thanks as always,

Set your fairing in place. If there is a corresponding hole in the body work then you need screws. They are probably M5X15. Nor sure of the pitch but that is what I see in a Stelvio parts break out. GU98710215
 
I agree, unfortunately when the fairing is set it sits under that metal almost circle and there's no way to attach the fairing to an emty hole. To me it almost looks as if there is some sort of gromet missing for that hole....
 
Nothing goes in the broken circle hole. It’s a pass-thru for the retaining bolt. It’s cut out like that so that you can loosen but not remove the front bolt from the side panel tab, and slide it towards the front of the motorcycle for easy removal.

The side panel is held on by three different mounting points - the rear which you must remove the nut and washers from the stem coming out under the tank, the middle which must be removed and is dead center in the bottom of the side-panel going horizontal into the frame mount, and this front half-circle which you loosen the bolt and the side-panel slides forward and comes out.

You have the panel incorrectly installed! Simple misalignment. You’re so close you just don’t see it.

Look at your photo here. You need to get the side-panel tab with its clup-nut, ON TOP of that half-hole.

The side panel uses a bolt and large washer that goes from the bottom of the panel, thru that half-hole and up into that silver nut clip on the side panel tab, which you need to reposition so that it it on the TOP SIDE of that hole. Remove the side panel and realign it so that tab is on top of the half-hole, not beside and under it like you have it.

STOP! DO NOT TRY AND BEND AND FORCE IT INTO POSITION! YOU WILL SNAP THE SIDE-PANEL MOUNTING TAB. YOU MUST REMOVE ALL 3 RETAINING SCREWS AND REPOSITION IT CORRECTLY AS YOU INSTALL IT.

Then when you install the bolt and washer, it passes thru the hole, going into the nut clip, pulls the whole side panel mounting tab tight against the whole metal frame mounting bracket.

There are complete instructions and photos of the bodywork removal on a brand new 2012 Stelvio in the PDF I made way back when...
