Photo of a "correct" MKIII engine bay

Could some kind soul please post, or point me to a photo of a reasonably correct MKIII Midget engine bay? I'm trying to tidy mine up a bit and I'm especially interested in how the cables and wires are routed, anchored, etc.

Got a good photo? :confuse:

Mark,

Here is my 65 MKIII Sprite, you did not say Sprite or Midget. I think everything is in the right place and fairly stock. It is missing the Heater AirDuct, Battery and the Air cleaners are not correct. I have also added an in line fuel filter and my heater hose from the shut off to the heater does a weird curly cue.

I have tried to emulate the masters on this site, I must say I do have something to be proud of.

Thank you one and all!
