Default Dash ash tray mounting bracket question.

Hi group. I need some pointers to mount the ash tray mounting bracket (this is the dash ashtray mounting bracket that goes under the radio) .
My car was a project car without the radio or ashtray.
I've researched and it seems that 3 screws are supposed to hold the bracket in.
I got a new ashtray bracket and set in the dash to see where it attaches and no holes are lining up.
On the 2 bottom holes, there doesnt seem to be accommodations.
And theres nothing there to attach the top screw to.

If memory serves (couldn't find my pictures) there are three pieces to that ashtray assembly, make sure you have all three before trying to install it.
