Air conditioning retrofit 200

Somewhere I have seen a picture of how the later 240 air conditioning and power steering brackets go together on a red block and I cannot find it. Can somebody point me to it? I'm sorry to be so dense, but I don't have another car to look at, have bought all of the parts via eBay and am having trouble figuring out how it all goes together.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Bob,

    What sort of a picture do you recall? Was it an exploded parts drawing or a photo of someone's car?

      OK, BrickBob and I straightened this out off list. The parts breakdown, or exploded view drawings were sought. These used to be only seen by us squinting at microfiche or hefting the 20 lb manuals kept behind the dealership parts counter, but now they are easily found when you visit the on-line Volvo dealer's parts ordering systems. Here is what I provided Bob based on the 1989 and 1990 AC and power steering:

        Art is the man. The pics make me wonder just how many variations on this they built because what I had wasn't quite the same, but I was able to figure it out with this help.
        She has power steering! No leaks, drives like new. On to the AC before summer, but it was 10F here this morning. No real hurry there.
