Default Turbo heat shield

This is probably a stupid question but, when I took off all my heat shields, I didn't notice or don't remember how the Turbo heat sheild was bolted on. Is there a bracket piece that bolts onto the DP and then the heat shield bolts to it? If so can someone upload a pic of what the bracket looks like so I can search my garage for it? A friend modified my heat sheild to fit my turbo awhile ago and I can't remember how that thing goes back on

The bracket is item #7 in the pic below. It bolts on to the two top bolts on the dp. In the shield itself (item #6) you can see two of the three holes.







Two more good pics here:

Son you're living up to your name: slow. J/k. I just replaced my oem heat shield Saturday so I'm with ya.

Here's a pic of the bracket. Right side of pic is front of car. In other words this pic is 180 degrees of the diagram with the numbers below.

The fuscia circles are the two mounting points for the bracket.
The open red circle is a visible mounting points for the heat shield.
The closed red circles with arrows means the mounting points are off the pic.
