Default New undertail re mounting seat lock?

Hey guys so i tried installing the new mototeck innovation undertail on my 2002 f4i last night and so I cut of the old tail, installed the new tail, drilled and put the clips back in. But the question i have now is how do i put the trunk lock key back? i see the hole and i understand that it goes in there. but there is a bracket on the stock tail(thats cut off) that holds the cable so when you turn the key the cable is held by the bracket and the line inside moves and it unlatches. i didn't see any extra parts for a new bracket or a spot to mount the old bracket thats on the cut off part of the stock tail. just wondering how this lock is suppose to work. sorry i don't have any pictures right now. Anyone have any feed back for me?
Thanks

Not sure about the cabel but the lock itself is held with the stock clip that has 2 fingers you ben back to slid off.

sweet thanks man that saved me a little figuring out.

but i still am now stuck with how to mount the cable to the new undertail. sence the brackets are no longer there.

if anyone has a mototeck undertail please if you can remove your passenger seat an snap a couple pics for me so i can see how the hell i'm suppose to make this lock work.

Wow so i kinda rigged something up for the lock that works. but i just want to say that mototeck innovation f**king sucks! for various reasons. one being the paint drip marks on the pan of the tail right when i got it out of the box. two when i drilled those holes for the plate the paint chiped(why were they not predrilled, seriously). three worst instructions ever. the best is "step13 put rear lock back on and hook up wires". ok what wire to what? thanks for the diagram. and no new mounting for the cable on the seat lock. i guess mine didn't come with one.

anyways now that i got that off my chest. can anyone tell me what color wires go to the brake lights and license plate light? i have 2 sets of wires for the brake lights(2 green and 1 black) so 4 green and 2 blacks for the brake light. then i have 1 green and 1 black for the license plate light all coming off the bike. for the undertail i have 3 wires total. does anyone know where each wire is suppose to go to what?

i'm doing the same install and had to rig the rear lock also. anyone can correct me if i'm wrong...
green=ground, black/brown=running power, green/yellow=brake power
in our case for the mototeck wiring: red=black/brown, black=green, gray=green/yellow. this undertail sucks, but at least i can say it's imported lol.
