Default Lateral Accelerometer pics?

I built a new dash for the track car, and I need to mount the ABS lateral accelerometer (sp?) in place. Problem is, I removed it over a year ago, and don't remember which way it mounts. I would think that this is important.

Anyone got a pic of a 94-96 dash with the radio bezel removed so I can see the correct orientation of it?

Steven, it mounts perfectly level and the wiring sensor pigtail is towards the nose of the car.

I am sorry, I have no knowledge on which way the pigrail is oriented in newer cars but here is how it is in (at least) 91-93 cars:



Also totally level but the pigtail goes rearwards. Don't know if it matters but maybe you need a confirmation before installing it. Jeff might be totally right so sorry about messing things up at this point

Good to know that it did change over the years. Jeff, what year C4 do you have?

BTW ToniH, your interior looks awesome!

Sorry, should have been more clear, the wiring pigtail faces toward the the front of the car. The way that is pictured is correct for 90-96
