Default 408 Interior mirror mounting

The 408 I'm working on has a new headlining but hardly any holes for fittings. I've sorted out the dome light but I have no idea on how the rear view mirror is mounted. From what I've seen in an internet search there's a console with what looks like a speaker and possibly the mirror screws to that? Does anybody have any pictures of what the assembly should look like and exactly where the mirror screws into? I can't find any console among the parts unfortunately.
Thanks for any help
Mark

No screws visible holding the mirror on. I suspect it's screwed from the other side and whole console then attached to roof.

Those shots are really useful. Not sure where I'm going to procure the parts from! Thanks David.
