If you've gone from a retractable to a full then you shouldn't need them.
They are only there to stop the retractable coming all the way out.
The full stock is only held on by the bottom pin.

^^ That.
Though if your selling/keeping your retractable stock, keep them little pieces, put them in a small see-through bag and store them with your retractable stock so that if you want to change back/want to sell on, your selling it as a complete package.

If its anything like ICS, you should have a "v" shaped piece of metal and piece of plastic.
Its kind of hard to explain without a picture or one in front of me but the v spring pushes up on the plastic bit and obviously stops the stock coming all the way out.

It sits in the groove and the spring forces the plastic lock into the end groove on the stock.

Right so after spending ages looking at the actual stock i looked at the mp5 and found the space for it after i put it in place it wouldnt go past the first position a picture of how it is placed before the stock is back on the gun would be great if anybody has one?

This happened to me the other day fella took me 10 mins of head scratch then kicked my self. there is only 1 way the plastic bit can go.
The V goes in 1st the the V point towards the front and the to top points facing rear. Then the plastic bit on top the slide the stock back on. may get stuck abit when it goes over the said pieces but once over hay presto back to normal. If when sliding the stock you find it very tight you may have to loosen the rear pin.

Hope this helps if you can do it will do a pic for you.
