Ok, I found two similarly shaped holes in the transverse frame crossmember forward of the catalytic converter and to the rear of the engine.

If I found the wrong holes post a reply, Thanks.

Congratulations on your great purchase and joining the ROC.

I found six of those in my glove box. Going to look today for their correct install locations while I install my chrome nerf side bars.

Wrong holes.

I just got finished installing my chromed nerf side bars and found the correct holes for these oval shaped grommets.

Mark (mjstraw) is correct, they go in the holes on the inside of frame members just behind the rocker panels. Three grommets in each frame rail.

The holes you refer to are at the outer edge of the crossmember. (last picture)
