One of those "blind" installations where you can't see what you're doing.

Or use a mirror.

This flange 

goes here.

It's the screw in support on the passenger side for the finish piece under the glove box.  Sorry for the camera angle as I don't contort like I used to, but tilt your head to the left when viewing and you should be able to figure it out. I remember every thing in that tight area is kind of like a puzzle as far as which piece goes in first because some of them overlap.  Good Luck!

YES,  thank you, it protects the silver painted rubber hose,  one down one to go.

When does it get silver painted?  My new one is natural black rubber finish.

One of mine is silver, I guess the 240? It is the pcv hose right?

@gwri8, thanks, yes I see it now in my pre tear down pics, it mounts on the fiberboard kick panel.

At the factory I guess, it doesn't look like a home made paint job, can't rub it off.

I've seen both. The silver must be to reflect heat.

[wheee!]

My 76 280 has the silver hose on the original motor too.

Some big progress today, bumpers on, dash in, emblems on.  Just have to pick up a fresh battery tomorrow, throw the drivers seat in and take it out for a drive!  In case anyone is interested the total weight of all the bumper parts comes to 80lbs.

Looks perfect!
