Well, here are the best pics I could take of the pointer area. I still think I am missing the correct hardware, as there simply is no definable mark. If yall can tell by the pic, let me know. (sure is easier to see on a non-wagon. Hydraulic pump is right in the way).

**edit**
FYI, there is nothing to the right of what you see. And, in pic #3, the large bolt on the right (not the more illuminated bolt on left) is where the pointer is mounted on my parts car. Also, in pic 3, you can see the locating tab on that ring shaped thing, but there is also a post pointing up on the upper piece down there, just to the right of the left illuminated bolt.
