Default park brake pad install, need help

I know there are plenty of threads relating to this, but I was wondering if someone has pictures as to how the parts align. I read the corvette mag tech articlle but doesnt show how the cable holder goes in or whether the adjusters go behid the back plate.
Any help appreciated,
Also if i wanted to replace the brake backing shields, how do I remove? Not sure if I have to unbolt the drive diff or ?

Rear backing plates are not that easy, most due them when you do rear wheel bearings.
