Crotch cooler door: what am I missing?

Men, what am I missing here for the mounting?

I can't figure out what this bolts to.

Here's a TTT and an old thread that may help.

Man, I really appreciate it.

It looks like I don't have to angle iron looking piece inside the truck that is, "spot welded" to the i side of the fender panel...

Anybody got any bright ideas?

I have one of these cabs stored away.

If I can remember I will take a look at it in the next few days.

I may have one of those vents???

I have had it in my swap meet stuff for 25+ years.

I would have to check to see if it is still there.;)

What's left of that piece still might be in there but rather ragged.

I don't think I can get the one out of the green/blue cab to get photos but I might be able to get the one out of my old chopped cab to do show and tell of the bracket. Bad thing is I doubt that there is any way to easily put a new one in without taking that outside panel off.

If I could somehow determine the exact size that it needs to be, I think I can fab a bracket and mount it to the back of that door hinge pocket on the inside, but I have no idea how I'm going to take those measurements i need.
