Default Need Pix of electronic ignition conversion for 65 327

Anyone have pictures of the installation of a Mallory Unilite electronic ignition conversion in a 65 327 tach drive distributor? I have a Mallory conversion kit, part no. 501, but the installation is not obvious and the directions are lacking. For example, I cannot tell how the 3 wires from the module are routed out of the distributor. It looks like my distributor only has a small hole big enough for one wire through the bottom of the housing.

You have to remove the grommet the wire points wire is going through and replace it with a different grommet with a larger center hole. The new grommet comes in the Pertronix kit, but I don't know about Mallory. I would think it should.
