Locking Cover Bracket Locations

Hi all. I read the post about adding the locking hatch, but was hoping someone had some good photos of where the factory brackets are tacked in. I have a pair that I took out of a donor, but they were riveting (and jb-welded) in, and a bit crushed, so I'm not confident on their placement. Any reference pics would help, or any suggestions for a better way to mount them, too. My original plan was to use riv-nuts and bolts, but I'm not sure about how much clearance there is between the body and tank right there. I know it's not much, but 'not much' isn't exactly a unit of measure. I figure I have the brackets, I may as well put them to use.
