Yes, I've rescreened several grilles and you're right, those buggars are spot welded. The trick is to cut the old screen off as close to those clamps as possible. When the new screen is layed into the grille (I find it easier to do one half of the grille at a time) attach it to the outer edge and leave the middle free until you get the other half of the grille screen attached to the opposite outer side. Then, push the screen against the horizontal ribs and down over the remaining "prongs" located in the center wide vertical rib. Carefully bend the prongs down holding the screen tightly against the ribs. I have found on some grilles that it may take some pliar work to bend the new screen into a "V" over those old clamps. This helps to tighten the screen to take out slack and helps hold the screen tight against the inside of the ribs. Takes some practice but looks good if you take your time.
