Handbrake umbrella lever

Hi all,
Has anyone got a photo showing how the handbrake lever (umbrella) is attached to the body. I have a RHD S130 5 speed, but need to see the position and relevant brackets. Mine has been altered (botched) and does not suit.
Many thanks in advance, George.

I have just refitted mine so can get you some pics tomorrow, but essentially there are just two bolts through the top of the footwell into the engine bay. These pick up a bracket at the top of the handbrake tube and a captive nut near the bottom of the tube. Spacers are fitted to get the correct alignment with the hole in the bulkhead plate.

Thanks to all for the help. Have now repositioned the bracket in the engine bay for the steering rack and brake line which had been fitted in the wrong orientation.
Will need to fabricate some new brackets to get umbrella in the right position, but thanks to you guys for pointing me in the right direction. Best wishes, George.
