Competition Engineering Weld-In Subframe Connectors - Where to mount??

I bought some Competition Engineering Weld-In Subframe Connectors. The only problem is I can't figure where they are suppose to bolt up to on the one end that has bolt holes in it. I know it's on something along the rocker panel. Can anyone tell me where they blotted up to on their car?

I bought some of those. They aren't very nice. The front brackets are supposed to hook to the tranny crossmember bolts, then go back to the rear subframe. You must modify the floor pan to get them to work correctly. They must not have realized that the early non-700R4 had a different mounting point for the tranny--they wouldn't work in mine. I cut the brackets off and custom made the subframe connectors out of the included tubing. For you guys that haven't seen the Competition Engineering Weld-In's, they are a straight piece of tubing with a bracket on one end--poor design.
