MSD Ignition Box Wiring Picture?

Hey guys. Tommorrow I'm buying the MSD distributor cap w/rotor button thing from Oreily's since the points on my old crappy one are corroded. I have an MSD6al box for my car and its already mounted but I'm having an issue wiring up the box. Can someone PLEASE post a picture of how/where to splice in to on a stock ignition to wire up my MSD6al box? I don't have but have seen a picture of the diagram but even when I looked at it im sure I could figure it out but I thought maybe someone on here could just take a picture for me and show me. I know its spoon feeding but I think i'd understand it better with a picture or two of where to cut and splice to wire it up.

Thanks guys.

+1. Makes wiring a box up easy

You can get the instructions for wiring off of MSD's website

Hey man I live in maryville, TN so let me know what you'd wanna do about that harness. I'm sure shipping would be practically nothing.

The 6AL gets wired in between the Coil Plug. Getting the harness is the best option if you want to make it a plug and play type deal. If your wires are already hacked up you can solder them to the stock wires and the use female spade terminals to connect to the coil.
