90 lower dash panel question

Hey guys, I removed the lower dash panel of my 90 coupe and i got frustrated and forgot how the diagnostic ALDL diagnostic plug goes back/. For now i just tucked it underneath that panel so it doesn't dangle. I did remove the bracket so can someone please take a pic of the orientation of the plug and bracket. thanks

It lays up againts the carpet surround. looking at it the top center line nub of the ALDL port is closest the carpet. This is the part you feel for when pluging in a ALDL cable. Do you understand and see the orientation now? GC

Thanks for the pic. What year is the car the pic was from? to me it looks a little different than the 1990.

my 84's is mounted in the same spot. a small metal tab holds the connector in place while one screw secures it to the lower panel.

No idea it was something I grabbed from another post to help you out so you could see the orientation of the ALDL port

trying to jog my memory, but it seems to me, there is only one screw holding the thing in place.
