AR-4X Cap, L-Pad photos

AR-4X Replace capacitor, and pot.
Have new L-Pad, New Cap from vintage-AR.
Their diagram shows connection of new L-Pad, and new cap install. It doesn't show connecting new L-Pad to new cap.
Need photos of new to new connection.
Found photo on line, picture quality is poor, and unable to discern proper connections.
Thanks bhorn.

The pics show the original crossover.....which used a potentiometer, not an L-pad.
The wiring is somewhat different.

With an L-pad, one of capacitor leads connects to tab no.3.
The other lead connects to the backing board at the same place as the red wire going to the woofer [the blue wire as seen in the pics of the original crossover].
Doesn't matter which lead goes where as the capacitor is undoubtedly non-polar.

If your L-pad tabs are unmarked, you'll need to look at one of the many diagrams online.
But keep in mind orientation, as your L-pad will be facing the opposite direction when installed.

Hope that helps.
