Need mounting brackets for '09 Bug shield

So I didn't fasten the bug shield properly on the grill (I didn't want the adhesive tape to leave marks on the grill) and per usual I am having to redo the brackets as they fell off after several months of use. One day I noticed the bug shield wobbling and as soon as I saw that I was like CRAP!

Now I need the front brackets and they are priced ridiculous for something so simple (again shocker) but thought I'd see if someone had knowledge as to where I can buy them before I go back to the dealership. I've checked ebay but didn't find what I was looking for. If anyone can help that would be great. Thanks

Not sure what kind of bugshield you have, mine did not have any adhesive tape and neither any brackets. It tucks under the gril and hood for a VERY nice n tight fit. I 've been running for a year now and no chance of wobble.
My brand is Bugflector, got it off ebay (new) for $57
 
If it's the OEM hood protector, you can buy the mounting equipment, but its something along the lines of $60, but it comes with everything but the guard itself.

I believe it is the OEM protector I bought from the Toyota Dealership. This is my first 4runner, my first post and my $60 lesson for not using the adhesive. Did learn that there are several different kinds of deflectors so I guess I'll examine those options. Thanks for the replies.
