Default under dash brackets C3

Does anyone have a picture of how the under dash brackets get bolted.Took this car apart 6 years ago and can't find my pictures of this. I have 3 brackets that get bolted up. Maybe only two get bolted. Not sure
Thanks

Need GOOD photos of the brackets you are referring to. I am assuming you are referring to the brackets that have your brake pedal init.

But I still need the photos so I can tell you where to put what.

Like Dub mentioned , not sure what brackets you are referring to. Know what you mean though about taking things apart from years ago and also where the hell they are.

Thanks for the pictures everyone but I'm looking for the three round rod brackets and where they go under the dash. Sorry I didn't make myself clear on what brackets under the dash. I think I know but wanted to make sure. I'm restoring a 1970 LT1.
Thanks again.

Sorry fellas.

He wrote 'brackets' and not 'rods'. so I am sorry I sent this thread down the wrong path and wasted people time by ASSUMING that the only brackets I know of are those for the brake pedal assembly.

The car ahs to be a convertible also due to a coupe does not use the 'rods' like are shown in the post above.
