A/C Condenser replacement/install

My car was involved in a front end hit that took out all the plastic back to the engine. And there's a lot of plastic. I'm not able to figure out how the A/C condenser mounts back into the vertical carriers that hold the radiator. (note all the parts were destroyed, so I have nothing to go on). On the left (drivers) side of the condenser are two horizontal tabs that appear to fit into the left side carrier. On the right is plastic clip/bracket about 4" long. I'm not able to figure out how it "clips" into the right side carrier. Without it the condenser is "flopping" around with ~1/4" between it and the radiator. This simple step is all that is holding me up from competing the repair! Any experience with this is appreciated.

Thanks

What year and model is the car?

Got it figured out. Car is a 2012 LCI 335i xDrive. Slower going on this tha I expected. Not having taken it apart, has given me a few challenges on the rebuild. So progress. Looking good.
