First, you need all of the brackets to mount it to the console. If you have those, the bottom bracket has four bolt holes which go through the console. Now, remove the forward woodgrain plate on your console. Once removed, you will see four semi-circular cast-in braces on the underside, which correspond to the 8-track bracket bolt locations. These spots were drilled oversized- at around 1/2" diameter holes- for the bolts to pass through. You can use the 8-track bracket and the cast-in locators to put it where it needs to be.
By the way- the factory wasn't terribly precise about this. I have seen the holes drilled 1/4 inch forward/rearward from the center of the cast locations, and the holes themselves allowed for a lot of slop in the position.
