Question about a couple of brackets

Post by Blkwidow »

Just finishing ulp a headgasket job on a 98 v70 turbo.
A little confused as to where these brackets go.

I know they go on the driver side of the engine. and hold the wiring and hoses over there. But what goes where? Anyone have a picture of them mounted in their car, or can anyone take a picture of them?
I know the silver one mounts to the front lower bolt of the upper engine torque mount bracket however i do not know which wiring is secured to it.

TIA

The silver one looks like the bracket holding the purge valve on the radiator on my 1999 T5???

The black one holds the small vacuum lines form the turbo as they pass underneath the CPS.
