I need some pics of a few things under the bonnet

Hi all
So i nearly have all the parts needed for my mk1 1.5 GL restoration, but there are a few bits that i'm unsure of exactly where they go.
The reverse switch on the gearbox isn't connected at all, so i was wondering if anyone could post a pic showing where it connects to the cars loom
Also i have 2 bits for the clutch, but again don't know where they fit exactly.
In the attached pic they are numbered 22 and 23, but unfortunately the pic doesn't show where it fits, so i was hoping someone could take a pic of where the clutch cable attaches under the bonnet.
Many thanks

Haven't got any pics but there is a mini loom from the GB reverse switch to the main loom (to cope with small/big block GB differences?) Do you have that smaller loom?

See the diagram in this link for the location the clutch cable rubber

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

hi early 1800, thank you so much for the attached diagram, that solves where the clutch parts go.
I will have another look at the reverse switch tomorrow in the daylight, i was told it attaches to the inner left wing somewhere, but i have the headlamp squirters on my car so have the super large screen wash bottle. I haven't seen a short loom that goes to the reverse switch so i have to assume that is missing!
