Second Air Force- can you check out in original Accurate Miniatures assembly, where part J 11 is to be placed? Transparent part which need to be inside fuselage cockpit

Okay, I found my instruction sheet and am trying to remember exactly how that part fixes to the fuselage half. J111 has to be glued on to the thick vertical frame at the front of part E28. It is the instrument panel for the gunner/radioman and if you have a picture of the rear cockpit looking forward you can see it on the left side. Sorry I'm not more descriptive, here's a photo of my old build for reference:

J111 is the small white instrument under the decking on the left side. It's almost impossible to see when the gun ring is installed!

Yes, this position. Can you make some screen from instruction manual too? In Eduard instruction, it is very poor represent

Bear in mind that my kit is SBD-1 and there are a few little differences, but this should assist you.
