Unanswered: Picture of Weber 32/36 DGEV in a Kadett..

Does anyone have a picture they could post of a Weber 32/36 DGEV installed in a Kadett? I plan on replacing the Solex and would like to make sure I install the Weber correctly. Please include pictures of the throttle linkage at the firewall. I'm missing a rubber grommet. I'll be ordering the parts from OGTS. Thanks.

Paul

I forgot the camera, so crappy camera phone pictures is all I have to offer, but they show what you need.

Zook94, noticed in your first pic that you don't have any engine-mount heat shield (attached at mount top bolt) down by the header . . . VERY IMPORTANT!! Engine mount will deteriorate from heat and ozone very quickly without it. Thats why Opel designed and used one . . .

The car came as equipped, but I have another in the stable to pull the heat shield from, and 2 brand new mounts from OGTS waiting to be installed.
