If it's like on my Jetta, the piece above (half mount) is attached to
the bumper cover by two plastic rivets.  I pried off the old mount
and put a new one in its place (available at VW dealer).  Since the
plastic rivets were now loose, I inserted 4 screws and washers into the
'hole' in the center of the plastic rivet.  I was impressed at how
well it came out!

I can't tell from your description but the Quantum sounds the same.
The parts guy said that the hardest part would be figuring out how
to secure the mount...
