Question Center console neutral safety photo needed

Hello, I have a 1970 Olds 442 at my shop that needs a neutral safety/reverse light switch. The switch and all the brackets were missing, only the wiring was there. I was able to source the correct switch (looks like this https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/electrical/1587-69-cutlass-console-mounted-neutral-safety-switch.html) I don't know how the switch attaches though. If someone could post up a photo of what this switch looks like installed so that I can fabricate a bracket that would be awesome. If anyone has the bracket that they'd like to sell me that would be great too. Thanks in advance for you help.

There is a second bracket that bolts to the rear two bolts of the shifter. That is what the switch bolts to.
I have my old shifter in the garage, but I'll have to go digging. I try and find it for you if someone else doesn't post something up first.

I have the console off of my 1969 if it were the same setup. Attached are some pictures from my photobucket site. Randy, can you could look at these and see if you think its the same as yours?

That looks the same. I still have to go and find it in the garage.
Got a better pic from the passenger side? Darn rust.
