My 87 arrived with the spark plug wires not in their holders, or correctly routed.
Has there ever been a diagram made that shows which wire goes where in each plastic holder / location?
I think I have all the plastic guides, if not I have an order building with Mark and would like to figure out what is needed in case I'm missing any.
I've paged through plenty of photos, but it's difficult to zoom in for exact detail.
If this is in the WSM I'll take my flogging for not looking there first.

Perhaps this will help. Someone had asked me to take some pics of the routing of the plug wires on my car. This car is pretty unmolested as I acquired it from the original owner with a bit under 19k miles.
The pics are in this thread:

Thanks!
Just waiting for Tom at 928 International to get back to me on the plastic holders. Looks like I need a couple plus the associated hardware....

Doesn't one of the clips attach to the front belt cover?

Here's the routing on the front of Mark's '91 GT- you can see that 6 and 7 from the passenger side distributor 'split' below the flappy solenoid and run behind the cam backing plate. And are joined by 5 from the passenger side.

Couple of pics of Dr. Bob's '89 showing details on 5-6-7:

I've see the four wires (that cross over for 2-3, 6-7) routed on the same side(front) on the front middle bracket, and also two on front and two on back side of the bracket.
Just wondering which is correct and if the routing changed depending on MY.

If anyone has miscellaneous pieces lying around....
I need 5 of the two wire and 2 of the three wire holders and any hardware associated with mounting them.
