Really not fake they hold grommet studs, and if one was to break you could change it and you can also change orientation of stud to firm up panel fitment ...:banghead:

Pull out your owners manual. Go to page 48. You need to remove item 1,2,3 and maybe 5. Just follow the steps and you will get to where you want to be.

OK, there are two owners manual on line "2787EN" & "2788EN" what one to use? and do I realy need to take all "5" just to install the one bolt for the belt thingy?

If you haven't installed the tensioner yet, or are having problems getting it installed, take a look at how I did it. I just now posted this. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?68608-Installing-new-style-SmoothSpyder-belt-tensioner&p=824719#post824719.

I had a lot of trouble getting the tensioner to line up properly because it wanted to move when I tightened the bolt. I solved that problem with my method. I also did not need to remove any of the side panels.
