Air Con layout

There are some parts missing from my air con - the condenser and some pipe sections etc. I can't figure out where the condenser fixes - there is a threaded bolt underneath but no corresponding bracket. Does anyone have a photo of the area where the water bottle lives (as below) showing where stuff goes?

Any info gratefully received. I've trawled the internet but can't find any images showing where the condenser fits - behind the water bottle?

Maybe you can determine from this site.

Thank you, it is quite useful - I have been looking at the diagram but it doesn't show exactly where the dryer (sorry not condenser) is fixed.

The Drier is under the windshield bottle washer, just follow the lines to the condenser in front of the radiator.

Thanks JCS - I found the location (see below)...and worked out how all the plumbing needs to go!
