Default I need some help

Nice forum!!!

I found a 1988 C4 Corvette at a good price and the only problem is that the original owner took everything apart and left it that way. Working with my brother-in-law we were able to get the dash/IP area put back together. If anyone has pictures of the IP areas at different stages of assembly this would be appreciated.

I have two other small problems:

1) How does the Theft Deterrent Controller attach to below the RH side carpet trim plate? A picture would be nice.

2) Can anyone tell me where these brackets go? Again, a picture would be nice.

The two left ones are upper dash supports that go to the firewall under the dash pad. The two with the wire loom plastic brackets go on the engine. Can't remember off the top of my head where the others go.

The theft module is mounted behind the breadloaf or passenger crash pad. It might be mounted with the two brackets shown on the upper right side of your picture.
