Default '69 Driver Side Vent Cable

What holds the vent cable at the driver side kick panel on my '69? The passenger side has a bracket. My car did not have a driver side bracket when I purchased it. It didn't have the driver side cable either. I can't find an picture or diagram of the bracket. Anyone have a diagram or picture of this little gem? If a bracket is required, does anyone have one that they are willing to sell?

Thanks for helping with all my questions.

Gus

Hi Gus,
There was a 'guide bracket' that screwed to the hinge pillar right at the opening for the vent door.
Regards,
Alan

The large bracket mounted on the hinge pillar and the small 'flag' bracket that's attached to the cover on the cable was screwed to the larger bracket.

Thanks Alan! Your picture is very helpful.

One of those little guys did not come with my car....no surprise! Anyone have one or know where I can get one?
