Default 34 floor starter switch?

Were does the floor starter switch mount to? (34 car) I'm thinking the metal plate near the steering column that I cant find! My car was missing it and was using push button/solenoid Ken

If it is like a '32 (and it is only my guess that it is since I am not a '34 expert) it attaches with the bottom two bolts on the top of the steering box. In the photo I am pointing to one of the top bolts. The switch attaches with the two lower bolts. You can see the switch in the photo.
